Is there a notional seat-pitch published anywhere for the standard-issue rear seats in a PA 44? Or any subjective opinions on comfort & endurance parameters for rear-seat passengers? I realise a quartet of rugby players, at legal MTOW would probably run out of fuel before anyone got cramp, but for this exercise, lets assume the two in the back are a typical Homo easapiens. ;)

PA44 cabin is exactly the same size as a Warrior/Archer/Arrow. OK for average people for 2 to 3 hours.

If it helps.. once backseated in one. 4 POB, got off the ground at Sibson.. admittedly not with much room to spare but it is a tiny grass strip after all. If it can do that then you shouldn't have much trouble anywhere else.

EDIT: Re-reading this I forgot to mention legroom. - Exactly the same as sitting in the back of PA28 or 172.. or any half decent family saloon car!

Hmmm. Probably enough to justify a more detailed cost-benefit analysis ... Thanks for the comments.
