Eh? Where do you get the idea that a 150 will out perfrom a 152? I had a 152 and did over a thousand hours in it over a 3 year period and can assure you it leaves a 150 standing in all circumstances!

I have operated in and out of sub 300m strips without a problem. ABout 400hrs in I put on the Sensenich prop, gap seal kit and K&N and gained even better performance (sparrowhawk). But even a standard 152 will breeze 1300ft at max weight on an ISA day.
