A nice, economical 1979 Cessna 152 — an ideal trainer, time-builder, or hobbyist airplane, cheap to fly and heavily maintained. The headline is the engine: the Lycoming O-235-L2C has just 370 hours since a thorough major overhaul in June 2023 by Twin Aircraft Engines against a 2,400-hour TBO. That overhaul included four new cylinders, a new camshaft and new lifters, a professionally repaired crankcase and crankshaft, both magnetos overhauled by Kelly Aero, and an overhauled carburetor, starter, alternator, oil cooler and vacuum pump, with a new harness and plugs and all applicable ADs complied. Compressions were 72/78/77/68 as of 11/2025. 11,492 hours total on the airframe — an honest, well-used trainer with complete logbooks since new. Avionics: KX155 com/nav 1, KX170B com/nav 2, KMA-24 audio, GTX 320A Mode-C transponder with ADS-B Out via a uAvionix tail beacon, JPI 450 fuel flow, panel intercom, and VOR with glideslope. IFR capable but not currently certified. Extras: electric trim, dual toe brakes, dual flight controls, STC spin-on filter, STC Peterson auto-gas, STC belly drain, and Bruce's custom cover, plus new plugs, an overhauled starter, rebuilt stall horn and new battery in 2025. Exterior is white with maroon and silver striping; paint is missing in spots and could be touched up, though clear coat and good paint remain over most areas. Interior presents well: vinyl seats with no rips or tears, shoulder harnesses, clean carpet. Next annual due 12/01/2026. Complete logbooks since new, full aircraft history, engine overhaul records, weight and balance, airworthiness and AD documentation are all included and available for review.
