those 150s are gutless with the 0200s in them, friend bought one that had the 0360 swapped into an an older 152 straight tail, now THAT one had great performance
I learned to soar in a TG-2 in the’60’s towing behind a 172 and, luckily. having a very long runway, which resulted in very long tows. L-19’s were a revelation.
Wow scary place to have the tow line connected! If that glider goes higher than the tow plane , it will make it pitch down !! The tow pilot would not be able to recover!!
lol a -150G with an O-200 pulling a glider, with two pax (ok 1 pilot, 1 pax?) off a tiny runway, with trees off the departure end What could possibly go wrong?
Yes, but if a glider makes a landing in a field, we have to return to the same field, which may be lame or difficult for the glider to take off again, so it is preferable for the wheels to be well clear

its got a 150 hp engine upgrade. the sparrow model has a 125 hp engine.
Cessena and glider plane is best friends
Yes just yes ! Lovely
Cessna Cardinal❤
Impressive, must have an upgrade to a O320
Gliders are so cute
Never saw a 150 or 152 towing. Don't recall any 172's. Mostly 182's, Pawnees, Super Cubs and even a Wilga or 2.
Can't believe it has the stock engine.
No the engine was modified for 160hp and the propeller is changed for more pitch
152 LOL. GREAT TRAINER THOUGH.

Wilga!
Hold the phone horizontal when taking pictures or video
Wouldn’t fit on TH-cam short
Skill
Uhhh... I would not use a 150 for this under powered and tow line attached at the tail. To easy over power the elevator.
they were carrying me
Could U glide me 8000 km to Asia 😂

There have been a few incidents due to the glider climbing to high early in the tow but it is rare.
The tow plane also has a release for the rope.
Where would you place a tow hook, instead?
Didnt think he was going to make it..skittish tunes..very skittish..oh well..
What glider was that?
Its an ASK 21
Cessna152 & Glider. Power ?
No power on the glider juste a modified cessna whit upgrade engine kit to 160 hp
Runway excursion?
Well, that took a long time to gain altitude. Not much margin of performance for safety…
No the climbing time is really good because the engine and propeller was upgraded
Modify take off in a Cessna 150? Really!?!
C152 is not a great tow plane.
lol a -150G with an O-200 pulling a glider, with two pax (ok 1 pilot, 1 pax?) off a tiny runway, with trees off the departure end
What could possibly go wrong?
Modified with O-320, STOL kit and low pitch prop
Wow a 150 can hardly get itself off the ground that’s quite a task towing with it 🫨
Yes but this one is modified for more hp
160 hp kit and special pitch propeller
Put some longer wings on that 150!
Very Nice
Very sweet take off
thats scary
That great looking plane would look must greater if the wheels were skirted.

@@theskycockpit_official good thinking always stay safe.⚔️✝️⚔️
What modifications were made to the C-152?
Prob something to hook the rope to
isn't it a 172?
@@leftseatmedia172 has different landing gears.
@@leftseatmediaDefinitely Not, look how small that thing is
Cool
Wow
For a while it looked like the glider was gonna start towing the Cessna
Thats sketch as hell
So very 50 Shades!!
