Steep turns for the private is a bank is usually practiced/tested at 45 degrees. Before entering the turn, ensure you are at Va or below,add about 50-100 rpm's, give a couple of short turns nose up on the; trim wheel,
lead the right turn with a little RIGHT rudder., as the bank increases, in crease the back pressure as to keep the horizon in the same spot on the windshield. let off a little rudder so that the ball stays centered.
(look outside,keep the nose from yawing.) You want to keep the plane coordinated in the event you stall, so you will NOT SPIN!!
If you use left rudder, you will be in a forward slip/skid
To recover, reverse the steps.

You will never be able to sustain flight in a 150 in "knife edge"
bank.. It will stall due to the load factor.

In a knife edge right turn, where the wings are vertical and the vertical stabilizer is parallel to the ground, the rudder and elevators actually change jobs... Left rudder will lift the nose of the aircraft (in relation to the ground) and up elevators will tighten the turn. The ailerons continue to move the wingtips in the normal directions.

You can't hold this position forever, but I've done 720 degree turns (two 360s) in this configuration in a C-150.

I'm sure if you bank right u would throw the wheel right puttin the ailerons that way right foot on rudder pedal then a really tight turn would have you pull back "lifting the elevator," whew, heavy turn, quick too.

Nope. Keep the ball centered with the rudders, apply back pressure on the yoke to hold your nose on the horizon.

Like Ray says. You won't hold a C152 in the knife edge for long whether you apply top rudder or not.
