I used to sit on a cushion, i'm 6'4 and felt like my knees where around my ears, would be good if gippsland made the rails slide back a tad further for the front two seats along with an adjustable backrest and lumbar support. (i really think they should make specialty pilot seats as 6 hours in them a day got a little tedious)

Along with no rudder trim
Yeah they have no rudder trim, poor little didums, never worried me, i never even used it in aeroplanes that did have it, and the most venerable of all the singles, the Bonanaza has no rudder trim at all Rudder trim is for assy ops in a twin, not for a lazy single engine piston driver, did you whine about rudder trim in your 152? I bet you whinge to mummy about having last years saab too!

They do not like turb too much though and can be a pain flying lines, yeah they are easy to stay on the lines with good control responsiveness BUT at the expense of your punters brekky!
