Just in front of the spar on the pilots side works well. Its not in the way
of your feet or legs.

Ron and John,
I have been flying a Grumman AA1-C for the past 3 years while I built my
RV-7A. The RV is ready to be inspected, waiting for FAA paperwork. I'm
interested in hearing what you have to say, and will let you know after I fly the
RV.
I am not a very experienced pilot having learned to fly about 6 years ago in a
Piper Warrior, and then buying a Cessna 150. I am thankful for the Grumman
experience, and at least I know that looking out at those short wings won't be
such a shock!
By the way the Grumman is FOR SALE now! Its located in North Central
Indiana. Contact me off list for details.

Wow .... looks like there are going to be more than a few ex-Grumman-new-RV
fliers out there! I bet we could start our own transition support group !
