@george7378 Stuka's right. Best glide speed in a C152 is 60kts IAS

Power-Attitude-Trim (:

glide speed depends on weight, it shuld be no more than 60 at max gross, it should decrease a bit with a lighter gross weight (technically)
-
Im Pretty Certain The 152 Has A Best Glide Speed Of 65 Knots, Not 70
-
Cheers mate, btw anticipate by %10 of your rate of Descent and use PAPT to come out of the gilde
-
Yup, agreed.

70 knot glide speed way to fast.
2300RPM here in Aus at Royal Aero Club

2200RPM is about 90 knots IAS, and 55 knots is only 5-6 knots above VS1. I wouldn't think that it is wise for you to be holding the nose straight and level this close to a stall when you are entering the descent.

2300 RPM * = cruise
Throttle Idle on Descent ( clear every 1000FT)
Glide speed ~ 55 knots
Leveling off anticipate at 100ft above (FPM=1000)

2200RPM = cruise
