Up front, his is my first post, so please excuse me if I put this question in the wrong location.
I'm starting the research phase of mentally building my first RV. I'm leaning toward the RV-8 for various reasons. Reading through the forums, I saw that heating the aft pilot was a problem in the RV-8. I recently bought a 2011 F-150 which has heated and cooled seats. Has anyone experimented with using this technology in an aircraft? Is there a power drain, fire safety, or weight problem that keeps folks from doing this?
Thank you for your time,
Matt
