me too
Back in the late 70s, I had just rotated a well worn Cessna 150 off
the Buffalo, MN airport, when I found myself at the back of the cockpit.
For some reason, I released the yoke when the seat let go of its track, and got
to claw myself back into position instead of the other outcome.
When I explained the situation to the crusty retired bush pilot FBO,
he replied "That's what those phone books in the back of the cockpit are for."
Woulda been nice if he had put that on the checklist.
This has happened a number of times with light Cessnas, with more predictable results. People have died, lawyers have prospered.
