OH, yes. I wouldn't curse anyone with a ride back there with their feet flat
on the original floor. I have flown in the back of several -4s and, of
course, found the heel cups a must-do. Mine are more heel PANS with lots of
room for a whole foot, water bottle, whatever happens to be there at the
time. ALSO: -4 builders: trim the FRONT seat "pleats" Down a little so they
don't rub on legs and put an extra triangle of aluminum in the area just
under the roll-over structure so knees don't get hung up in there. I have
spent a good deal of time in the back seat of Suzie Q to make sure it is
comfortable so my PIB (that's PRINCESS in back) is comfortable. She loves it
back there.

You will then absolutely hate any Rocket 'cause it has lots more of the
same.

No way I could hate a Rocket. Except my cheeks hurting from smiling so much.
I'd figure out something.

I have an extended "shelf" that my left arm can rest on when on the throttle
making for a very steady, sensitive hand there, much needed in formation
flying and bouncing around flying. (Photo Share available on request.) I'm
just wide enough to have to lean one way or another to be nestled against
the sides of the -4 but find it secure rather than snug or tight.

of my LT-1 C-4.

Age can do that!!
