The Cessna 152 is one of the most widely used flight training aircraft in the world. Introduced in the late 1970s as an upgrade to the Cessna 150, the 152 brought more power, durability, and reduced maintenance costs. Its high-wing design, stable flight characteristics, and low operating costs make it the backbone of many flight schools worldwide. While it’s a basic aircraft in terms of systems, its forgiving handling and simplicity have helped thousands of student pilots earn their wings. It remains a top pick for flight schools even decades after production ceased.
