Greetings:
Looking at buying a completed RV-7A or 9A or partner with somebody to build one. Anybody in the Southern Calif Area who is willing to give a Demo Ride. Will pay for gas. I am 6' 5" and wonder if there is enough room for a long legged guy.
(Finished building the empennage of a RV-8A, but could not complete the rest of the Kit for various reasons.)
Live in Santa Monica. Local airport is Santa Monica (KSMO)
Thanks, Garey Wittich

Garey,
no doubt you will discover this for yourself.....
I am a tad under 5' 11", and was always bumping my head on the canopy.
I am taller in the torso than leg evidently.
The thickness of the cushion is crucial, as is having the lap belts snug always.
I found that having the seat back in the forward position of the
bottom hinge, and the top reclined as far as possible, gave me the
most headroom. You'll want a headset with a slim top band, or none at
all ( Halo ). The downside is, the stick is then right in your crotch,
so no room for a 5 point strap there. If you build, you could use a
curved stick for more room there.
The rudder pedals in full forward are likely far enough for most guys;
I have to move mine closer to the seat, as I can't deflect fully.
best of luck, sorry but I am not near you, and my plane is grounded right now.

Would you like to fly an RV-9, tail-dragger. I'm in Watsonville and would sell mine.
