There is not a whole lot of room to work with anyway. The more forward you can sit, the better
++++++++++++++++ Thanks Dan The above comment is the core of my question - get as far fwd as possible, BUT how much room is there to do so and still feel comfortable with the stick position, especially for someone with a bit of middle age spread. The only KR I ever flew had a centre stick so no way to tell if there was space to move fwd or not. I don't see how mounting the stick on the aft side of the main spar avoids extra holes in the main spar. ++++++++++++++++ The small bolt holes are not the concern - mounting the pole on the fwd side (to get another 4 -5 inches in front of the pilot) will require a dirty great hole through the spar for the push rod. I flew a KR for 185 hours that had a center stick and that is one of the most aggravating things there was about the KR. ++++++++++++++++++ I am pleased you made that point - I have always wondered if there was that much difference - now I know. Take care Steve J
