The original comment was that things happen faster due to higher
airspeeds in all phases of flight. My point was that all one has to do
is pull the throttle back and fly slower.


Well, yes and no. By doing so one flies slower, but now in the 182 one
is flying significantly closer to stall, and in the 152 one is flying
right in the sweet zone. Learning to fly, one should learn all the
flight regimes, and become used to cruise in cruise, and approach in
approach.


Jose, I don't think you understand that a newer 182 at aft cg max gross
weight has a stall speed of 48 knots. At reduced weight it can drop to
38-42 knots. The 152 stall is down around 35-42 knots.
