From: "paul perry" <pperryrph@sbcglobal.net>


I have a Model IV Speedster with the standard cordura seat and back cushion.  I
would prefer to have more of a "bucket type" seat that kept both pilot and passenger
centered in their respective seats. More in the line of automotive firmness.
I would appreciate any info and especially pictures of what others have
done with their seating other than the standard variety.    Thanks, Paul Perry

Hi Paul,

Here are some pictures of the upholstery in my Kitfox.  I had it made 
by a local seamstress that does commercial work.  The cushions are 
made of layers temperfoam of varying thicknesses.  I have a thinner 
set for tall people and a thicker set (an additional layer of foam) 
for those that need a bit of a boost.  The faux leather and fabric 
were purchased at a local fabric store.

I hope this is helpful.
