I will probably get a verbal thrashing on this question, but anyway.....
Ever since my training days in the Piper Warriors I have thought that the
fuselage steps up to the wing walk are about the ugliest things on an
airplane. With a tri-gear, I know that some step is almost a neccessity.
The question is has anyone found an alternative to the standard step? In
the three years I've followed the RV list, I don't remember the subject
coming up and I will expand my search, but thought maybe someone has a
direction?
Thanks All,
Terry Hobert 9A Fuselage

Terry - I raised this issue about 2 years ago because I had the same
concerns. If you are a Harlem globetrotter you might manage without, but you
wouldnt fit in. Now its up on its wheels the fact that they are an option is
clearly absurd.
Order 2 steps!
Have fun, Steve.

Terry,
I can't remember the website, but somebody came up with a step that retracts
when you shut your canopy. If I find the link, I'll post it.

Hey Guys,
The best solution to this problem, and the route I took, is build a
taildragger.

Dennis you beat me to it. The -9A is a TALL airplane, I was stunned at
how tall they are the first time I stood next to one. I can't wait to
see a TD version up close and personal.
