Introduction
The Cessna 152 is an American two seater, fixed tricycle-gear, mostly used for flight training and personal use. Introduced in 1977, it was based on the Cessna 150, where over 7500 units were produced over 8 years (1). Although production has stopped since 1985, it is still a popular aircraft in the skies.

Why?
Why should it be added? The C152 is found all over the world, operating for personal and flight training use. It is a great General Aviation aircraft to do some scenic flying around the Bahamas or maybe Tahiti.
The aircraft could also help people training in the C152, where they can practice what they've learned during training.
If the C152 is ever announced, I’ll be desperate for the devs to add my C152. Only problem is this is the only one in the entire world. Like there’s no other like it, becuase my flying club is so small and uses different aircraft rip.
Hey @Panther! This is a great proposal! however, I feel it is too similar to the C172 to be added right now when there are more pressing planes that need to be redone or added, like the 767, 757, a330, a380, a340, embraces, etc. Hopefully this can be added in the far future though!
I was looking at this plane wanting to buy it and we almost put down a offer for 22k which for how this plane looked seemed extremely cheep and if I couldn’t buy it IRL it would be awesome in IF next best thing
I think a 152 would be a very good airplane to put in infinite flight. It is the trainer of all trainers. We need more GA in infinite flight, I think this would be a good option. Even if it had the sparrow hawk conversion, extra power and performance. If it had a garmin in 430 or 530. It would be a great ifr airplane.
An important aircraft used throughout the world for training and recreation. Voted, would definitely love to see it come to Infinite Flight to join the fleet of GA aircraft already available.
