I saw that Anti-Splat had introduced a new product, the "Easy Exit Bar" for 6,7 &9 "A" model planes. It mounts between the main landing gear weldments and provides a place to push against with your feet getting in or out of the plane. As 70 is at my "six", getting out of my plane was becoming more difficult and puts a real strain on the shoulders. So, I thought I would give it a try and return it if I found it not up to my expectations. After mounting and using it, you couldn't get me to take it out. It really works, making both ingress and egress much easier and your shoulders and carpets no longer take the beating.
Installation really takes less than 10 minutes, most of which is collecting the right wrenches and getting in the airplane. It is well engineered and built, obviously a lot of work went into getting all the angles just right. Once installed it is remarkably firm and steady.
I am writing this review only because I thing other senior captains would find this product helpful. I paid full price plus shipping, and have no connection to Anit-Splat, I just found this a very useful product and will recommend it to my friends that may fit the right pilot demographics.
