Technical Specific: Cessna 152.

The Cessna 152 is its own DGCA subject with its own paper, and this is its own bank — 274 type questions on the aircraft you actually fly, with no question from another type anywhere in it.

Technical Specific is sat on one aircraft type. The paper is 50 questions worth 2 marks each in 90 minutes — and every question you are served here is a Cessna 152 question, because a C152 candidate should never have to filter out a twin.

The complete C152 type bank

Limitations and the airspeed set, the Lycoming O-235 powerplant and its handling, the fixed-pitch propeller, the fuel system and gravity feed, the 28-volt electrical system, flight controls and trim, the landing gear and brakes, pitot-static and vacuum instruments, and the weight, balance and performance work the paper sets.

What to know about
Cessna 152.

What the paper testsYour aircraft, not aircraft in general

Technical Specific is the one DGCA paper written against a single airframe. It asks what your aeroplane does — its limiting speeds, its fuel quantities, how its electrical system is fed, what its checklist says — rather than how light aircraft work in principle.

That makes it the most learnable paper on the syllabus and the easiest to under-prepare for.

What is insideOne type, nothing else

Because each of the six types is a separate subject on AIVR CPL, a Cessna 152 practice set, a Cessna 152 test and a Cessna 152 exam paper are drawn only from the C152 bank.

There is no shared "Technical Specific" pool to filter, and no chance of a DA42 question turning up in a single-engine paper.

Where marks go missingNumbers you thought you knew

Type papers turn on exact figures — speeds, capacities, pressures, limits. Candidates lose marks on values they half-remember from a different type or an older variant of the same one.

Read every one against the aircraft flight manual for the airframe you are actually being examined on; where a figure varies by serial number or modification, the manual wins.

How to work through itA small bank, so run it dry

This is a compact subject, which is an advantage: it is realistic to work the entire bank rather than sample it. Practice mode first, then test mode until nothing new appears.

Then sit the 50-question paper on the clock. Ninety minutes is comfortable once the figures are secure and very short if they are not.

Inside a question

Not a list.
A worked answer.

Every MCQ is graded the moment you answer it, and the explanation shows the reasoning rather than just the correct letter.

01
Auto-graded
Pick an option and get instant right or wrong with the correct answer revealed — except in exam mode, which reveals nothing until you submit.
02
Formula box first
Numericals carry the governing equation on its own line, so you can revise by formula before you revise by question.
03
Numbered method
Worked step by step from the given data to the answer, with nothing skipped.
04
Chapter tagged
Every question carries its chapter and whether it is theory or a numerical, so a wrong answer tells you what to revise.

Cessna 152 · Powerplant Theory

The Cessna 152 is powered by a Lycoming O-235, which is best described as:

AFour-cylinder, horizontally opposed, air-cooled, normally aspirated✓

BSix-cylinder, horizontally opposed, turbocharged

CFour-cylinder, in-line, liquid-cooled

DFour-cylinder, horizontally opposed, geared and supercharged

Worked solution

1The Lycoming "O" prefix denotes a horizontally Opposed engine with no gearing, turbocharging or supercharging — those would add G, T or S to the designation.
2235 is the approximate displacement in cubic inches, across four cylinders.
3It is air-cooled and normally aspirated, driving a fixed-pitch propeller directly.
4Answer: option A.

Questions about the questions

Cessna 152 FAQ

Is the Cessna 152 Technical Specific bank free?

Yes. All 274 Cessna 152 questions and the full-length timed paper are free for life, with no paywall and no card.

Will I be asked questions from other aircraft types?

No. Each of the six aircraft types is a separate subject on AIVR CPL with its own bank and its own paper, so a Cessna 152 paper is drawn only from Cessna 152 questions.

How long is the Technical Specific paper?

It is 50 questions worth 2 marks each in 90 minutes — 100 marks, passing at 70.

Which aircraft types are covered?

Six: Cessna 152, Cessna 172 R, DA42 Austro, DA42 Thielert, Piper Archer III DX and Tecnam P2008JC. Each is its own subject with its own paper.
