Why in the hell would anyone steal a 152 ?
Amen to that!
A 152 can't go very fast, it could barely scratch the paint off a building, and LA controllers are fantastic provided he could get off the ground...they would watch this little slow dot on the radar go where it wanted and vector planes around till he crashed or ran out of gas.

People steel for the high that gives them. I hope they caught the person attempting this.
What a buzz-kill this must have been. The devil's in the details.
If they decided to steal my 172, I think they'd try somebody else's. I have padlocked chocks, a throttle lock and the battery goes home with me to be trickle charged for the next flight.
I hope you did a log book entry for that.
Douglas: Referring to removing the battery?
Yes
Douglas: You are correct. Checking on that, I found that a log book entry should be made each time the battery is removed. I thought you were saying that pulling the battery is not owner allowed. I will get my maintenance logbook out and make the entries. Thanks

Just trying to help. I have seen a lot of owners and or pilots do things without log entries and or w/b changes once you go down that path it can get out of control quickly.
