The Cessna 152 was basically a more powerful
version of the Cessna 150M. It featured a new propeller and redesigned
cowling, and was available as the standard Cessna 152 and the Cessna
152/11, the latter having a complete factory installed electronics and
equipment package and dual controls. In France it was built as the Reims
Cessna F.152 (552 built). The Cessna A152 Aerobat (315 built) was the
aerobatic version and was also built in France as the Reims Cessna FA152
Aerobat (89 built). Production of the Model 152 ended in 1986 and
thousands remain in use worldwide.
