Norman,
The Simpson Racing p/n 29063 belts with 3" webbing and crotch strap weigh 4.89
pounds right out of the box. The shoulder harness will be shortened for most
installations so the final weight will be slightly less.
Simpson also sells a nice 2" webbing, 5 point belt set. P/N 29026(belts) and 31012(crotch
strap) for about $75. The weight of this set would be much less.
The Simpson logo stiched to the belt will come right off with a little help from
your wife's thread ripper.

Does anyone have a comfortable solution to a seat for the rocket, I am
getting tired of sitting on a foam pillow and am looking for something that
will make those extended trips with my new tip tanks a bit more enjoyable,
on that line, anyone ever tried a relief tube and/or have any suggestions on
how to put one in. I could live in that plane if I got those items out of
the way.
Thanks
Ernest

I have always used RCI belts. A good value at $59.99.
Basically same thing as Simpson. Something to look into.

Hey Ernest, Apparently Summit Parts has a contour seat that might fit in a
rocket, I saw one in a starduster and the guy said its very comfortable,
will it fit the Rocket ? maybe someone out there knows, On the relief tube,
use the original range extender, a rubber band, a straw and a coke bottle
: ) :) Us old sailplane types used plastic baggies and pitched them out
the window to have them smash themselves on the empennage. Enjoy, Bob,

To ehale and the rest of you Jon Johansen-type bladder busters out there!
After all those looooooong flights in the airliners, I
believe I have a solution for you. Actually, my brother-in-law came up with
this. Say's when he wants to watch 8 or 10 hours of fooball on TV, he just
gets a couple of six-packs and wears his Depends. Claims it works great!
Easier than cutting a hole in the bottom of your beloved Rocket.

Morocketman, I can't believe that you would mention Depends. That's not even
funny.
Your Brother-in-law is one twisted individual. There isn't a football game
ever broadcasted worth peeing yourself. I Certainly hope you are not
serious about anything you said.
Perhaps a small venturi - the type used to run an old "needle-and-ball" turn
indicator would work.
They are very inexpensive and common as dirt.
Happy Building all,
Linc

Utterly unbelievable that someone actually took that "football watcher"
comment seriously! <:) <:) HAH! (personally, Depends would be a
whole bunch preferable to trying to clean off my seat cushions! <:))(Not to
mention my pants and myself!:) :).) (There are a LOT of planes that have
greater endurance than me. That isn't the point of them-it is being able to
have a choice as to where and when to fuel up. Fly in Alaska just a little,
and it will be impressed on you just how important this can be.)

Les, re: molded seat. In Australia a couple months ago, I rode in a RV4
that had a Jon Johansen molded seat in front. I was the back-seater but sat
in the front on ground ... it seemed really comfortable... I don't recall the
price but it was mentioned and hit me as a bit steep at the time !

A few years ago several of us bought seats from Johanson for use in -4s and
-8s. The seat fit my RV-4 perfectly, however for a variety of reasons I
decided not to use it. I don't know if Jon still sells this seat, I think he
has a web site you could check.
