Just joking. I have looked at your photos and sat in my plane. The rear deck hits me between the shoulder blades. The cockpit feels much smaller than y'all's looks. I am 5'7.5" and about 193lbs. My front cockpit feels much larger. The instrument panel is at least 6 inches further from me in the front. I am going to make mine several inches taller and incline it up some. At the angle it currently sits, I will hit the bridge of my nose on the edge of the windshield in case of an impact. Changing the angle should help.
