I sat my behind in the cockpit and felt quite comfortable, a lot more room than the 902 (also 110% more than the Robinson 44 which I fly anyhow but thats another story!!). Also there is a good height clearance even for a 6ft jockey (I'm 5"7 anyhow so that doesnt really count)

Admittedly forward view isn't too bad, with the EC-135 and MD902, there is more at feet level but still was the 429...its good at knee level.

Plus seats go back and forth on a rail (unlike the Robbo 44 )
