Why there is a difference in BHP between Cessna 172 r and s while both have same engine IO360-L2A?
You are correct in that it is the exact same engine, the Lycoming IO360-L2A as you mentioned. The difference is in the propeller, namely the propeller RPM limits. I don't have the numbers in front of me but prop on the 172S is rated for higher RPM, and therefore 20 more BHP, and as a result, an extra 100 lbs of useful load. Additionally, there is a conversion (STC) available to swap out the prop on the R model with the S model prop (most often done at prop overhaul time) giving it the extra horsepower and useful load of the S model.

What is the difference between Cessna 152 aircraft and Cessna 172 aircraft?
its pretty much the same just little bigger engine and sitting capacity up to 4 person in 172 where as 152 has only 2 seats. 172 carrys more fuel then 152. 172 has two types tank. one for long haul and other for short haul. otherwise these two planes has almost the same features. and very good aircraft for training. i did my PPL in 152's and IR in 172's milan, TX The Cessna 150 was introduced in 1957 modeled after the Cessna 140 tail dragger. It is mostly a training aircraft and has two seats. The last model was produced in 1985. The Cessna 172 is a 4 seat aircraft that looks like a bigger 150. It was introduced in 1955 and is still in production today.
What is high pressure compressor in turbine engine?
In an axial flow turbo fan engine there are two compressors. The first compressor is the low pressure compressor or it can also be referred to as the fan and is the first rotating assembly in the engine located aft of the engine inlet. The second rotating assembly located aft of the low pressure compressor or fan is the high pressure compressor. The basic difference between the low and high pressure assemblies is the amount of air pressure they generate. Low pressure compressors usually have a small number of stages and fewer and larger blades. Whereas the high pressure section has more stages and smaller blades. As the air passes through each stage of the compressors it is squeezed thus the pressure and temperature increase. When the air flow exits the high pressure compressor it is at its highest temperature and pressure generated by the cold section (compressor section) of the engine. Hot section/combustion section is another matter. Keep in mind that there are numerous turbo fan/turbine engines and each one probably will be configured differently as far as the number of stages and blades in each compressor section.

What is aeroderivative gas turbine?
An aeroderivative gas turbine is a type of gas turbine engine that is derived from jet engines used in aircraft. These engines are designed to be more lightweight, compact, and efficient than industrial gas turbines, making them a popular choice for power generation in applications where quick start-up and flexibility are important. They are typically used in combined cycle power plants, as backup power for industries, and in mobile power generation units.

What is the difference between Cessna 172N and Cessna 172P?
The P has a more reliable engine, the Lycoming O-320-D2J. The maximum range for the flaps was reduced from 40 degrees to 30 degrees in order to reduce weight and allow a 100 lb increase in carrying capacity.
What is the difference between a Cessna 182172 and a Cessna 207?
The Cessna 205/206/207 differs from the 172/182 in several ways. It is bigger, heavier, and more powerful for a start. Without going into all the specific details, you can put it this way. If the Cessna 172/182 is the sedan of the sky, then the Cessna 205/206/207 is the SUV of the sky. The most important difference for a pilot is that the 300 hp powerplant and constant speed prop of the 205-series will require the pilot to hold the high-performance and complex aircraft endorsements. The 172 has a smaller engine and a fixed prop, so these endorsements are not required for it.
