It’s N65440, a C152 (two seater, around 40% less horsepower than a C172).

- rkagerer 2y agoA comment below the video from someone claiming to fly that particular plane regularly said the second seat is removed.
- mathsmath 2y agoThat’s still wild IMO for a 152. Economical trainers they are, but summer mountain flying plane they are not. Maybe if you ride some thermals…
- mathsmath 2y agoOh yikes. Every 152 I’ve flown makes 172s look like Superman. They are anaemic even at sea level in the summer! In that class of plane, 182s are my personal minimum up here in the summer. I have heard of very experienced pilots having close calls with unexpected downdrafts on otherwise calm days.
