Cessna 152

The Cessna 152 was the first aircraft I learned to fly when I started my initial flight training in March of 2000.. It is a two seat, single engine, aircraft that has been very popular flight training aircraft for many years. The aircraft as a single Lycoming engine is capable of producing 110 horsepower and cruise speed of around 100 miles per hour. It has 26 gallon fuel capacity and a range of approximately 350 miles. It has been regarded as one of the best trainers ever built. More pilots have been trained in the Cessna 150/152 than any other airplane. Many pilots think the Cessna 152 is very easy to fly, very forgiving, and able to withstand those less than perfect landings that student pilots occasionally do.

Cessna 172

The Cessna 172 is a four-seat, single-engine fixed-wing aircraft. It is manufactured by the Cessna Aircraft Company. It was first flown in 1955 and it is still in production. Over 44000 of the aircraft has been produced making it the most successful aircraft ever. In comparison the Boeing 737 and Airbus 320, which are the most successful airliners, have been produced less than 10,000 units each.

There are many variants of the Cessna 172. Over time the avionics and engines have changed but the basic airframe design has remained the same.

The high wing design has made it a popular chose among flight schools and aerial photographers due to the good ground visibility. The design has also allowed to the aircraft to be fitted with floats for different types of operations.

Diamond DA20

This a small two-seat single engine aircraft manufactured by Diamond Aircraft company from Austria, but the aircraft itself is built in Canada. It is popular trained because of low cost maintenance and low fuel burn. The DA20 has a higher glide ratio than many other light aircraft and it looks similar to gliders.
