    Does anyone know of plans or drawings for steel seats for the 200 that were one of the original installations? I have seen this seat and would like to reproduce it if any drawings are available.

    If anyone else is interested in trying to get modernized seats for our 200s, I’ve inquired with Oregon Aero about some thinner new style seats that would mimic the seats in modern aircraft. This would reduce the girth and thickness of our seats, giving upwards of 4″ more total room fore-aft. A couple inches top-of-seat-to-yoke distance and seatback-to-panel distance would help me. It would also have the same effect in the back (2″ more headroom and kneeroom!). Anyway, as an individual it was quite cost prohibitive and having certification and production cost hurdles, I am not the one to undertake this … however, perhaps if many of us would be interested in 2-4″ extra cabin space, let’s make a quorum and see what it would take to get ’em made up! Comments? Hope to make it out to a fly-in and meet everyone one of these days (now that I’m retired, it is more likely to finally happen!)

    A big shout out to Joan Diver. I had a pilot seat bracket crack in half. Dan McLeod suggested I contact Joan and sure enough-she had the OEM brackets. I was back in business in less than 2 weeks.

    Thank you Joan!!
