Ok, we've owned three RVs, an 8 that fit us perfectly, a 7 that had plenty of room, and now, a "new to us" 8 that makes both my son and I feel like we are right up on the panel and our knees hit the bottom of it. It's apparent that the original builder must have been smaller in stature as the seat cushions are really thick. I had to remove the bottom one and use a thin one just to clear the canopy. Leg room is not an issue as it has the adjustable rudder pedals. I can only assume that the first 8 we owned incorporated some mods (seat back bottom hinge moved back, tall pilot option) and I'd like to do the same for our new one. I can find the kit on Van's store but there's no price. Anyone done this mod on a completed airplane? Cost and time?
Thanks!
Thanks!
