I don't have a lot of 152 time. I have recently become reacquainted with the type. I think it is a great little airplane. Mostly I rent the C140 where I live, but if it is taken or if the winds are over the FBO's taildragger insurance limit I am happy to fly the 152. We can always take the attitude that if it isn't a (Pitts, Bonanza, super cub, fill in your favorite here) that it is no good, but what is the point of that?
