The Cessna 152 Aerobat is an aerobatic and civil utility airplane manufactured by Textron Aviation Inc., formerly Cessna Aircraft Company.

Summary

“ With the Model 150 and its successor, the 152, Cessna created the most popular civilian training aircraft in the post-WW2 era. With the 152 Aerobat, they made a few key tweaks to the design and gave pilots a taste of barnstorming.

From 1978 to 1985, the Wichita, Kansas company manufactured 315 of the 152 Aerobats, single-engine two-seat monoplanes with strengthened fuselages, full harnesses, quick release doors, and cabin skylight windows for safe aerobatic flight.

In addition to the plane's greater structural strength, designed to withstand up to 6Gs positive and 3Gs negative force, the Aerobat injects fuel evenly into all four cylindersof its stock Lycoming 0-325 engine, for prompt ignition and of its stock Lycoming 0-325 engine, for prompt ignition and combustion.

What does it all add up to? Legendary Cessna 152 performance, and the ability to pull off barrel rolls, lazy eights and Immelmanns to your hearts content. 		”
