Ok, I knew that much. :-) Actually, I meant to compliment Van because
it's obvious he really knows what he's doing and designs some wonderful
aircraft, but looking at a 152 up close it's really not too difficult to
imagine something going lots faster with the same engine. :-) Lots of
bumps & draggy stuff all over those things.

Not 50mph faster, but a good 20 or so, much better climb too...
