About this aircraft
The Cessna 150 and 152 taught generations of pilots to fly, across a long run of model years with different engines (Continental O-200, Lycoming O-235), electrical systems and flap travel. They are simple enough to fit a single-page kneeboard, which makes them perfect for a checklist you write yourself — start generic, then match your primer, carb heat and V-speeds to your POH.
