Booster cushion
Does anyone know of anyone who could supply a purpose made cushion for a DA42?
There was an old thread on but that was a number of years ago now. I was working with a 42 previously and it had a purpose made booster by an aviation accessory company.
Any help greatly appreciated, cause I can’t see out the front!

For my DA40, I bought some Confor energy absorbing foam, made a cutout for the stick (easy with a sharp knife), and got a local upholstery shop to cover it. You can buy it at glider shops, including the BGA

These guys come to mind, in the US. Don't know if they ship overseas or not:

Custom cut to your specs then have it covered by an automotive shop.
