The technology connections impression is uncanny haha. Also shit, whenever aviation engines it just makes me wonder what one of these monster aircooleds could do in the middle of a corvair. What could an O-520 do with unlimited camshaft profile and such? When the FAA and gravity aren't there to say "don't do that."
@@skatedoof Yeah, I got pretty lucky. One was completely non-functional so it was thrown in for free, the other just needed some adjustment.The non-functional one needed a replacement knob (found online) and to clean out the single crumb that was preventing the switch contacts from working.

We're just going to gloss over the fact that there's a sticker that encourages you to do stunts? Imagine if the sun shade in your car taught you to do donuts and burnouts
It's the air. If you're not in controlled airspace over a population center or airport, and you're at a safe and legal height, and you know how to correct if something goes wrong, what is the problem? The sort of people who crash their Mustangs pulling out of Cars and Coffee are the sort of people that all the testing, training, and licensing policies for aviation are designed to weed out.
It's like bush flying, except the bush strip moves, and your bush plane weighs 30 tons and has a stall speed of 120 KIAS even with all aero devices deployed. Good luck!
I had to show my dad this video. He owned a 1975 cesna 150. He bought the plane he learned to fly in. The entrance to this video hit way to close to home and was worth a good laugh. Thanks for the content.
This is the heavy heavy monster sound The nuttiest sound around So if you've come in off the street And you're beginning to feel the heat Well listen buster You better start to move your feet
Honestly? From the one time I got to fly one (about a half hour), this is a driver's ed sort of plane I'd be happy with. That was my Young Eagles experience though, so there might be some bias. The one I flew was blue, and not an Aerobat that I remember, but the moment he cut to the instruments it was like a whole bunch of core memories at once.
I do 172s. Same shit basically, but you can actually take your girl flying even if she's THICC For the 152 the "no fat chicks" sticker is a FAA requirement

I owned a 150M, I think it was a 1975. Electric flaps. With 1/4 full tanks and just myself, I could get off the ground in less than 250’. Loved those huge flaps. You could mush her in at under 50 mph if needed. An old timer told me “you’ll mop up less bloody foreheads landing in the trees at 45 vrs 65 mph”. She wasn’t a long distance flyer, but I loved her none the less. Was not an Aerobat. Had an aftermarket starter with special gear scags that never failed. Steps for checking fuel. Quick oil change drain and auto STC, (I never used). Wish I still had her.
This is quite an interesting coincidence. I thought I remembered that plane, N2745J, and I just checked my log book. I used to fly that very plane out of KBED back in 1978.
Doesn’t need more power. If you’re talking about the PO-2... remember that it has an insane amount of drag to overcome.. plus the power to weight of that radial is nowhere near as good.
Gotta love 40 degrees of flaps on a 150. My friend used to fly one at ERAU on flight team. He could be 1000 feet over the runway threshold, dump in the flaps and aim at the ground and fly at about 55 knots, and land on the same runway.
I literally just got done watching the Air & Space Museum episode from 5 years ago where you ended the video with this plane and the line from the description. So I got that goin' for me, which is nice.
You nailed the smell of a 150! Every flight school 150 had that "smell". Loved flying the 150! so small and nimble. cramped- yes. cool- no. you dont get in it, you put it on. Better hope you like your instructor too. You're gonna be close. like pressed shoulder to shoulder close. Helps to wear good deodorant. thats all i gotta say about that.
Merry Christmas folks! Idk about y’all but I’ve been spending it here specifically the last 5 years or so and it’s been beautiful interacting with everyone and Mr Regular and Roman. The memories are eternal, even after the time has passed us by. Enjoy the holidays guys! 🎄🎁
I have a lot of hours in the C150, 152, 172, 182 -- and various other trainers. This review was absolutely spot-on, especially the smell part (should have included antique leather and old carpet tho)
I need to finish my PPL. But you've described the 150/152 to a tee! The thing that stood out to me soloing is how much one less person changes things. Thank you for the humor!
But it’s not, really. 40 flaps teaches you more about power and configuration management. Hey.. if it’s gusting 30 knots.. maybe I shouldn’t use full flap. Very few pilots are flying slow enough to take the full advantage of 40 degrees of flap.. and most light aircraft land in half the distance they need for a takeoff anyways so runway length and stopping distance is never an issue.. just to impress your friends or reduce your backtrack time.
omg i love these Technology Connections segments, its the crossover between two of my most favorite channels on youtube that i never realized how much i needed in my life
I learned in a 152. Very gentle, but capable airplane. The perfect trainer. There’s more room in a Miata with the seats slid all the way forward, tho. I always felt like an ape in a shoebox.
I remember going up in the air in one of these (four seater version), my best friend was getting flying lessons at the age of nine years old. I was ten. I remember the flight instructor asking if I wanted to fly the plane for a little bit while we were up in the air... I said no. I still regret saying no, the one freaking time I could have flown a plane and I said no! Although, I must say riding in that tiny plane gave me the worst case of motion sickness I have ever felt in my entire life. I’ll never forget that as well, I got sick and vomited in a bag while up in the air at 3000 feet and didn’t take off my headset, so pretty sure they heard me puking 🤮😆 good times with my best friend I’ve known for over thirty years now. Merry Christmas everyone!
If it was a four seater you probably went up in a 172 or 180/182. Another very common Cessna craft. If the 150 is a Cavalier, the 172 and 180/182 are the 90s Malibu and Lumina respectively.
I was practicing circuits when the guy sitting behind me blew chunks into the bag. I was so focused I didn't notice until the instructor quickly cracked open the window.
Navy Pilot here, ironically enough our trained mentality is "If it's in this book, don't do it " whereas the most other services are more "If it's not in this book, don't do it". But flying is flying and it's fulfilling regardless of how you learn it!
We used to pack one of those full of ammunition in africa years ago. Way above its apprived weight limit. It was a great plane for hauling supplies and scouting.
The 40 degree flaps on the aerobat are great. To land fly so you are above the numbers, put in your 40, point the nose at the numbers, pull back when you're near the ground.
I remember going up with my instructor in one of these on a pretty windy day. The plane for blown about 100 feet to the right of the runway just after liftoff. I feared for my life.
The same thing happened to me, except for some reason in this instance, the radio key was (unknowingly) stuck on so pretty much anyone on the safetycom frequency within 5 miles heard my swearing all the way down finals lol.
Watching this again after 24 hours in my log book. Did my solo at 20 and finished my first X country. Here in south Florida weather is sporadic and we get tossed around all over the place. Really glad I have no issues with nausea because it seems to be pretty common for a lot of people. My instructor has over 1000 hours and apparently he had a real hard time at first with it, which blows my mind. Even 6 months ago he got a ride in an Extra 300 with a stunt pilot and he was yaking all over the place hahaha.
This video reminds me of taking flight lessons 20 years ago before realizing that it was too time consuming and expensive to continue. Because of my size, the instructor put me in the Cessna 172 they had instead of the 152 they usually flew for beginners. And i remember the instructor needing to throw a 100 lb bag of sand on his side of the aircraft for weight balance.
I flew one of these planes when I was around 13 years old, Dad had a friend who owned one and they let me take the Yolk for about 10 minutes. Was glorious to a teen in love with Chuck Yeager's Air Combat on the CGA Computer A: Floppy drive! Will never forget that day. Now that Technology Connections was pretty cool, but you should add a link to his channel in your 'See More' Category for the few who don't know about his channel. I still have no idea how, but I can watch a half hour video from him, about something I never cared about, and he keeps my attention... HOW!? The dude is amazing, his dry humor is perfect for the videos he makes.
Spent many hours in this great plane but depressing when flying in a headwind and seeing cars move faster on the interstate highway below and for a fraction of the cost.
Since there’s so many questions about oil in relation to the first Ranger video and this is an aircraft which I’m familiar with, I’ll digress a bit while giving Mr Regular a bit of slack. Aircraft use air cooled engines with very loose clearances. They are extremely loose at start up and then “tighten up” as the engine comes up to temperature.. typically corresponding with about 200F on the cylinder heat temperature gauge (if installed) or two minutes of idling.... ....and maxing out at about 450F with the optimal operating temperature being less than 400F. Because the clearances are so high to start, it’s perfectly acceptable to run straight grade oils. It’s a lot cheaper, too. Most aircraft oil is 50 weight, with 40 weight for cooler temperatures and 60 weight for really loose engines (typically large radials). However, the oil is really thick when cold and unless you have a pan heater or engine tent or heated hangar, it’s too thick to use in the winter. So we use multi grade oil. Typically 15W50 or 20W50. Now.. the important thing about any multigrade oil is that the oil is actually the lower number. 15... 20... or 10, 5, or 0 in cars. That’s what it actually is. What makes them thicken up at operating temperatures are these things called viscosity improvers. Now, in my and lots of other pilots and mechanics experience, using multigrade aircraft oil in extreme heat will result in those viscosity improvers breaking down. The oil reverts back to its natural state.. so instead of 50 weight oil you have effectively 15 or 20 weight oil. You can see this on the engine instruments as the oil pressure plummets and the oil temperature spikes. Often, you are only a needle width from exceeding limits as you try and fly as fast as you can for cooling while still maintaining a climb. This is why most operators run straight grades in the summer. No chance for it to go back to a lower viscosity. I’ve never seen this happen in a car. But mind you, most cars only have idiot lights and less than precise instrumentation which doesn’t include oil temperature. But I can totally see it happening as we have much higher compressions and boosts all in the name of specific power. So Mr Regular wasn’t exactly wrong in his concern about a highly loaded engine and oil with a thin cold viscosity.
at this moments i just waiting Technology connections to publish "How electronic throttle body works" featuring mr. regular

I really like the 40 percent flaps to maximum braking teaching bad habits analogy
How to tell if someone learned in 150, they always come in high on their approach.
But it’s not, really.
40 flaps teaches you more about power and configuration management. Hey.. if it’s gusting 30 knots.. maybe I shouldn’t use full flap.

Oh great, now I'm imagining J.G. Ballard as a pre-teen saying "I can't remember what my parents look like."
'twas at 8:01 that I realized, this might not be a lovable collaboration, but more likely just a brutal roast.
Merry christmas!
0:47 a GALM team patch huh, i see you're still alive, buddy.
* Spanish guitar intensifies*
@@eriksteel6433 another GALM inbound, what a nice day
I flew one of these planes when I was around 13 years old, Dad had a friend who owned one and they let me take the Yolk for about 10 minutes. Was glorious to a teen in love with Chuck Yeager's Air Combat on the CGA Computer A: Floppy drive! Will never forget that day. Now that Technology Connections was pretty cool, but you should add a link to his channel in your 'See More' Category for the few who don't know about his channel. I still have no idea how, but I can watch a half hour video from him, about something I never cared about, and he keeps my attention... HOW!? The dude is amazing, his dry humor is perfect for the videos he makes.
Cessna 150: the Chevy Lumina of trainers
No. The 182 is the Lumina/Impala.. 172 the Corsica/Malibu... 152/150 the Cavalier/Cobalt.
@@Bartonovich52 the 172 is the Camry of the air

Been using this as my daily driver for over 10 years no problems besides running out of gas midair
Spent many hours in this great plane but depressing when flying in a headwind and seeing cars move faster on the interstate highway below and for a fraction of the cost.
That's why we have cars.
Since there’s so many questions about oil in relation to the first Ranger video and this is an aircraft which I’m familiar with, I’ll digress a bit while giving Mr Regular a bit of slack.
Aircraft use air cooled engines with very loose clearances. They are extremely loose at start up and then “tighten up” as the engine comes up to temperature.. typically corresponding with about 200F on the cylinder heat temperature gauge (if installed) or two minutes of idling.... ....and maxing out at about 450F with the optimal operating temperature being less than 400F.
Because the clearances are so high to start, it’s perfectly acceptable to run straight grade oils. It’s a lot cheaper, too. Most aircraft oil is 50 weight, with 40 weight for cooler temperatures and 60 weight for really loose engines (typically large radials).
However, the oil is really thick when cold and unless you have a pan heater or engine tent or heated hangar, it’s too thick to use in the winter.
So we use multi grade oil. Typically 15W50 or 20W50.
Now.. the important thing about any multigrade oil is that the oil is actually the lower number. 15... 20... or 10, 5, or 0 in cars. That’s what it actually is.
What makes them thicken up at operating temperatures are these things called viscosity improvers.
Now, in my and lots of other pilots and mechanics experience, using multigrade aircraft oil in extreme heat will result in those viscosity improvers breaking down. The oil reverts back to its natural state.. so instead of 50 weight oil you have effectively 15 or 20 weight oil. You can see this on the engine instruments as the oil pressure plummets and the oil temperature spikes. Often, you are only a needle width from exceeding limits as you try and fly as fast as you can for cooling while still maintaining a climb.
This is why most operators run straight grades in the summer. No chance for it to go back to a lower viscosity.
I’ve never seen this happen in a car. But mind you, most cars only have idiot lights and less than precise instrumentation which doesn’t include oil temperature.
But I can totally see it happening as we have much higher compressions and boosts all in the name of specific power.
So Mr Regular wasn’t exactly wrong in his concern about a highly loaded engine and oil with a thin cold viscosity.
Is the red wing a touch of GA wabi-sabi or a nod to Solo Wing Pixy 🤔
I loved flying a 152. Nothing between you and a viral video of your crash but a tiny bit of competence, humility and chance. Oorah
ONE STEP BEYOOOOOOND! Merry Christmas everyone!
Ayyy, a Robotech/Macross fan.
