before it was over gross with my instructor and me. Needless to say we
didn't go very far from the airport. :>) I didn't know you were supposed
to wait until you got to pattern altitude before you turned crosswind. I was
normally there in the Titan by the time I got to midpoint on the runway!

Yepper.. the 152 was made until 1985 or thereabouts. I flew a few of these
when I was finishing up my private and for a while afterwards as a renter.
These had the O-235 in them and some other slight mods like only 30 degs of
flaps. Flew almost exactly like the 150 just a little heavier on the
controls.
They made one with long range tanks I remember that. With full gas, you
could only fly solo, but it had something like 4 hours of endurance....
Neither one climbed near as well as our titans, tho ;).
