I just bought a Cessna 152. I was trying to find an owners group I can
join, but I never get a response.
I tried the cessna_150_152_group on yahoo groups as well as
cessna150152.com and do not
get a response.

Is any there anyone who is a member of either of these groups?
Are there any websites/forums devoted to Cessna 150/152 ownership?

The group to join is Cessna Pilots Association, http://www.cessna.org They
have a very active forum with topics for all the Cessna models. Lots of
good technical information available as well.

Which Beechcraft are you refering to?

For Bonanza's and Barons there is, of course, the American Bonanza Society
(www.bonanza.org) the offical source. There is a simular organization
for the Musketeers/Sierras/Sundowners, but I don't know their name.

If you want a more informal discussion group for Bonanzas and Barons, you will
want to subscribe at http://lists.aviating.com/mailman/listinfo/beech-owners
(WARNING: Probably more discussion (OT and off) than you could want). There
is a simular group through Matronics, but it doesn't get much traffice.
There is also www.beechtalk.com, which seems to be good, but I don't have
much experience with it.

I recommend the Cessna 150/152 Club whose web address is
http://www.cessna150152.com The CPA caters to the bigger Cessnas
while the 150/152 club deals strictly with the 2 seaters. Every year
they have a fly-in at Clinton Iowa right before Oshkosh.

Hmmm....$50+ pa for a monthly mag. Their Tech notes seem handy.
They even show one - probably the most important one - for free:
Wheel Shimmy.

I was a member of the CPA for years until I had to sell my Skyhawk due
to medical reasons. They are a wealth of informaton. I saw that you
mentioned wheel shimmy - you gotta love Cessna. I installed one of the
new Lord dampers and it works as advertised. Much better that the old
fluid filled OEM part. Just be sure it is correctly shimmed. There are
other issues in the nose strut that can lead to shimmy.

Actually - it sounds a far more pleasant place to live than any British
city I know of. I can visualise the rules -
Anyone caught littering is shot.
Any anti-social behaviour - a night in jail then shot.
Theft - night in jail, flogging, then shot.
Speeding - banned for a year, then shot.
etc ...
Just what we need here.
