Cessna 152 Flight Training (startup, takeoff, landing, traffic pattern)

This Cessna 152 flight demonstrates some of what I have to do to be a safe pilot when I rent a 152 from my local flight school. Starting with the pre-flight checklist, I go over some of what is on a Cessna 152 checklist for startup, takeoff, landing, etc. and include a look at how a closed traffic pattern works. This is not meant to be an extremely thorough tutorial. It is simply an introduction to flying in a Cessna 152. Fun fact: my "number one traffic" in the Extra at 15:33 is Patty Wagstaff.

50 years ago (I was 16) I spent my 8th hour of dual flight instruction shooting touch and go's in a new 152, tail number N60905 painted in Cessna's flight school promo paint job. I knew I was getting close to having the skills to solo but had no clue when that would happen. When I pulled up into the flight school parking area my instructor told me to shut down without first positioning the 152 for parking. He told me I was ready to solo right then and there. I was instructed to get back in and take it up once around the pattern. I got back in, fired up, contacted ground and taxied out to the threshold. Tower cleared me for takeoff and a once around. I took off, turned on crosswind then downwind and while watching for traffic and being overloaded with the adrenaline that a first solo can produce, I realized that I was about 600 ft above the pattern altitude. I instantly focused on that oversight and spent the entire downwind throttled back and paying attention to my instruments, to the tower and traffic and descending to the pattern altitude. I turned base, then final and lined up for a perfect landing. Tower congratulated me on a perfect first solo (little did he know - no transponder in that one). Ground cleared me back to the flight school with another 'job well done'. When I got out, my instructor was standing there with a pair of scissors with which he cut my shirt tail off to hang on the wall of the flight school with my name and date of the glorious event. Unfortunately, I was a sophomore in high school and needed to save my money for college. My dad (who was also a private pilot) had no clue I had been blowing my money on flying and shut that program down for me then and there. Even though dual cost $21 an hour and solo $14 an hour, the minimum wage was was about $1.60 at the time so relatively speaking, it was still expensive. Even though my intention was to keep it up after college, other priorities got in my way and I never did. This first solo was my last but I still have my log book to prove that I did it! So thank you Brady for this video! Watching this video was a first for me since then and brought back many good memories.!

[@af4653]

John Cook , what a lovely write up, thanks for sharing. I have had one experience flight (including basic aeros ☺) and one lesson. My lesson was in a 172. I loved it. I am studying Air Law and Principals of Flight while we are all on the ground wishing we were in the sky. Stay safe.

[@adorabledeplorable5105]

John Cook The day I soloed it was the same . My instructor had me do a few T&G’s after before taxing up too the hanger . He had me stop , he got out and contacted the tower and said he was “ sending one up on his own .....be gentle “ . Scared to a point , but after the first T&G everything clicked perfectly . I remember the day I got my “ ticket “. He said congratulations......” now go and learn too fly “.

[@SleutelbosMusic]

Thats a great story John, and one more solo than me and most other people. Must have been a fantastic experience for sure!

[@badgerfishinski6857]

Best way to do your first solo

[@houseoutsidelight8705]

I'm going to have a solo in a Cessna 185 skywagon

[@partidash]

Yes, the first solo is a once in a life time experience. No matter how many hours you log, those first 15 minutes are the most remembered. I had mine on June 22, 1968 after 9 hours of dual training. We took of and landed and taxied back to the ramp of the Aeroclub Maracaibo in Venezuela. My instructor jumped out of the Cessna 150 YV-E-KPF and when I was about to do the same he said to stay in. I look at him kind of worried and he said: "you are ready for your first solo". All what I could ask was "are you sure?" Yes, I am he said. Then he called tower and advised the controller. The idea was making three takeoff and landings on the row. My instructor then said: "be aware of two main points: trim the plane less because now you are alone so the plane is lighter and most important: once you are up in the air, you must land safely. Nobody else can do it. Only you. I will be on the radio at all times. So, I took of and once in the air I realized what I was doing. On my own. My life depends on me alone. What a feeling. What was going to be a 15 minutes flight turned out to be a 40 minutes one. While on the down wind leg and almost about to start my base leg, the controller advised to extend the down wind leg for 5 minutes since a DC-8-61 was starting the down wind leg to land in 02L. I acknowledged and turned my head back and only could see 4 back smoke trails. I remembered the dog-fights in the movies, pushed the throttle to max and headed for the new airport in construction at that time and performed a holding pattern for about 10 minutes when the controller advised to go ahead and land. After finishing my 3 circles and parking the plane they took me out and poured a bucket of water on me. The custom at that time was to pour a bucket of spent oil but that practice had recently been prohibited after an accident where the pilot was burned to death because the oil. I flew for 15 more years but that first solo is still in my mind. Thanks Brady for bringing those memories.

[@davidwarda5616]

these planes look kind of fast because In this video I saw that the aircraft was slightly bit faster than the cars. unbelievable

[@johnshepherd708]

The first solo is indeed a high light and you will never forget it. I soloed in a Piper Tri-Pacer at Van Nuys Airport in 1971. It was a totally focused event and a thrilling experience. The feeling of excitement, anxiety, confidence all wrapped up in the moment. This with a sense of accomplishment and fulfillment at the end of the flight. It’s like nothing else that you ever will experience. It brings a smile to my face and I remember it like it was yesterday. Leaving the airport that day was like I was on top of the world and it was like nothing else mattered. Take the opportunity and learn how to fly. The day that you solo, I promise, will be an extraordinary experience that you will carry with you for a lifetime.

[@jamesanderson3009]

My 16 year old son is working on doing his solo, I’m so very proud of him!

It's better when you have the headset on IRL than hearing it through a recording

[@Cheeto_Fingerz]

I felt the same when I was a new trucker. Usually when you hear CB audio played back in a video, it sounds like a garbled mess, but in-person, it’s usually pretty clear and easy to understand. On top of that, after you’ve been in the industry for a while, there’ll come a point where you can hear garble and still know what’s being said.

45 years ago I had racked up 12 hours in a Cessna 150 and was ready to solo. But I couldn't pass my physical due to my eyesight (didn't have TWO good eyes). Now I am old and with a bad heart, but love videos like this to remember what it was like. Thanks!

That's my story, too. My dad was a pilot for United (this is 1968) and made sure his kids knew how to fly a Cessna 150. Judson Aviation at what is now Vance Brand airport, Longmont, CO. Since I have limited vision in my L eye I had to take a special check-ride with the FAA guy and passed no problem. That's as far as it could ever go, at that point but my love for flying and flying machines is as strong as ever. So this was a wonderful video to watch and I appreciate you letting me tag along, Brady.

This video is the first video I watched to see if being a pilot was for me. Just so happened to be recommended to me as I was thinking about a career change. I remember watching it and thinking "I need to do this" a bit later and this video pops up in my recommended again, and since I first watched it I've gotten my first flight, Private license, Instrument License, Multi-Engine and Multi-engine instrument. Working on my Commercial license right now and I'm loving it. The best decision I've ever made is to become a pilot. You've played a note in my story, a video I watched that possibly changed my life forever. I'm sure there are several others that have done the same because of you. I hope you realize how much you've changed my life and many others, simply by sharing what you do in a single small flight :) .

[@BradySkye]

I don’t even know where to start in beginning to thank you for writing all of this out. This comment is what wakes me up in the morning and keeps me going. My hope with making this video was to inspire others to take that first flight, and see where it takes them. So Garrett, the only thing left to do now is for us to fly together and raise a glass.

I went on to get my Commercial Multi-engine rating and owned two airplane in my time. A Piper Colt and a Cessna 210. I quit flying about 20 years ago. Now I don't think I could pass the physical. I'm 73 years-old now. I loved flying the 152. It was so easy to fly. Nearly brought tears to my eyes watch this flight.

My first solo was a shock to me. After a couple touch and go's, my instructor told me to pull up to the office and let him out. So I thought he was cutting our time short. I'd already had 6 hrs. instructed at another FBO but lack of funds cause a delay in solo. I found this old grass strip field about 14 miles from my original airfield. I really likes my instructor, 63 yrs. old at the time, myself 21. After 4 hrs. of instruction at the grass field, he turned me loose, myself regretting it . The Cessna 150 was and older ship, 1965 to be exact. At takeoff, all I could remember how fast the plane got up and the lightness of controls without a second passenger aboard. A mortician couldn't have gotten the smile from my face. If you're not a pilot now, just take lessons 10-15 hrs., and solo. I promise you, It will be a life changing moment for you.

When came time to do cross country flights, short, medium, and long, did them in 172 instrument rated with duel radio's. It was a toss up when did cross country, use 152, go a little slower, or 172 a little faster. One thing remember about 150 and 152 were they were easy to handle on stalls especially on power on stall in a bank. Always practiced them when working on hours in practice area. Again thanks for the video, brought back a lot of great memories.

On a good day, flying a Cessna 152 from Kent County International Airport, I could squeeze in 10 touch and goes and 1 full stop landing in an hour. My finances were tight and I got much more flight practice staying in the pattern versus flying around in the training area away from the airport. One pilot commented about the fun of flying from Wisconsin during the winter. I agree! Our main runway was 10,000 feet and always cleared of ice and snow. The parallel runway we did the touch and goes from was a still decent 4,500', but was frequent covered in hard pack snow. When I could do 7-8 consistantly good touch and goes from snow covered runway with stiff crosswind, I felt like I was doing some good piloting. My instructor made sure I had a lot of landings on snow packed runways and night flying. I was grateful that he challenged me.

@@dennis771 Im about half way through my PPL now... But have had to stop since the COVID outbreak. Are you based in the UK? Realistically you can expect to spend £10-15k for lessons and equipment (headset, flight bag, reading material, knee board & Log Book + some other bits) You'll want to find a flight school with decent maintenance on the planes and a competitive rate for hours. You'll also need to get a class 2 medical and pass your air law exam, so start your revision and book reading if you want to get the theory ready for when you fly. All the best! :)

How are you doing now... one year later?

Watching your video brought back so many good memories for me....my 1959 150 wasn't quite as fancy as a 152 but still tons of fun to fly. Thanks for the reawakening. Drill some holes in the sky for me.

Wow! This was the best training video I have ever watched! And the way you had your GoPro centered makes it feel like the viewer is right there in the right seat! That was so fun that it’s a real bummer that you’re done (for the day). Thanks and I subscribed to your channel!😀

Awesome Will! I really appreciate it. Hope you enjoy some other videos as well. I need to make more educational ones in the Taylorcraft I've been flying. Thanks for subbing and keep in touch!

[@gilbertrainey2514]

I used to fly, but at the age of 82, I can enjoy your instructive videos. Great demonstration.

[@BradySkye]

I am so happy to hear that. Thanks so much Gilbert. Be sure to check out some videos in the Waco Biplane. I think you may enjoy those even more.

[@gilbertrainey2514]

Thank you.

This video is great, it helps out so much. The animation in the top left is helpful and very nice. Undertitles are also available. I enjoyed the video very much. Thank you for this!

Love this video. Helps us student pilots a lot to know what to expect.

It has been over 10 years for me but this video brings back so many memories! I can smell the avgas!

Quality video and flying, Brady. As an A&P I appreciate you leaning the mixture when full rich isn't necessary... Especially in the 152. I have flown the Taylorcraft at this school. Can't wait to get back in it. Blue skys!

[@cristovaodacosta4000]

thank you Brady ! I am ready to fly 152! very pleasant lesson!

[@viswanaathv.s.220]

Dear Brady, for those of us who couldn't do the real flying, this video is a real treat. Yes I did have a simulator session for an A320 with a pilot. Cessna looks interesting, not too complicated. I appreciate the time you have taken to record and upload this video. Keep the good work going man !!! Good Luck !!

[@BradySkye]

Thanks to you too! I really appreciate it.

Got my ticket in a 152 over 20 years ago. Very forgiving and fun airplane to fly.
