 How much weight can a Cessna 150-152 carry ?

However, not understanding this question gets pilots killed all the time during takeoff. They are used to flying alone and then they load up with too much weight in their Cessna 150, 152 or 172 and then they crash on takeoff because they are used to being able to climb more steeply with less weight when taking off alone. So, they stall the wing by ascending at too steep an angle and fall out of the sky and crash as a result. So, it can be too much weight or just ascending at too steep an angle with one or more passengers you aren't used to the weight of when flying. Weight is everything in surviving in a plane by the way. placement of weight is really important especially in taking off and landing too. Too much to the right or left or forward or back might cause you to crash on takeoff or landing even if it is within the weight limit.

In many situations like this even an experienced pilot of 20 or 30 years couldn't save the aircraft or those within it. But, usually they would know not to do this because: "There are old pilots and bold pilots but NO old bold pilots."

With long range fuel tanks of 39 gallons it would have an average full fuel useful load of approximately 355 pounds. The main difference in the 152 from the 150 is an extra 10hp in the upgraded engine, an increase in useful load of around 100 pounds, and flaps that extend 40 degrees instead of 30.
