Mechanical flaps on the 28. No fuel pump on 152, gravity fed. I should say no electric fuel pump.

Just thought of the main difference, it doesn't need a clogful of rudder in the climb. The engine is only like a couple of rubber bands so no or hardly any rudder required. That one still catches me out as I usually just climb with my right foot out automatically, then wonder why I'm flying sideways in the 152.
