| Subject: | Classic Aero seats |
G'day all. Does anyone have any experience with Classic Aero seats with
the tall pilot option installed in there RV8? Does it affect their seat
back I'm assuming it rests on the WD808 like Vans and in which case it
will have to be longer.
The reason I'm asking here is that it took over a month last time for
Classic Aero to reply to my questions.
Thanks

Greg,
I have the tall seat option in my RV-8 and it is great. I'm six
four. It makes the seat back a little longer and you lean back a bit
more. I don't remember exactly how much longer it is. To many years
ago when I built the seat back, but I would guess maybe a couple of
inches.
I bought the foam for my seats from the folks in Lincoln Nebraska
that come to OSH and took it to my car guy. By the time I was done, I
had eight hundred bucks in both seats. We even used certified material.
The cushions are made up of several layers of temper foam. They have
"kits" made up with the correct amount of each foam for both seats.
Last year's price was about $400.00. Hope this helps a bit. Tom N558TX

Hey Greg,
Don't know about the tall option, but I'm assuming they have it in the
mix. I just got my seats from Classic Aero and went to Albany to pick
them up. They turned out fantastic!!! The workmanship is top notch. I
was going to do the vans foam. But when I sat in their built-up seats,
that was the fastest like $1300 bucks that disappeared. Once again the
quality was above what I expected and they think about what they are
doing. Soooooo, I think they have already thought about it. Try them
on the phone. They were always there when I called. Unless you live in
Australia, then let me know and I'll call em for you.
Later,
John
