I decided to go with simple and ordered a set of Noral Seat Cushions to use during the break-in that's about to start. I wanted to be able to experiment with thickness and fit as I'm 6'3" and with a headset, will test the limits of a 14. There is nothing harder than the 747 seat that I sit on for hours on end and all I wanted was something a little softer.
Point is , there are choices out there for less than 200$ to give you time to experiment under various flight scenarios (?) as to what your butt will be satisfied with.
My aircraft will be Utility use 98% of the time and I know I won't win any awards.
But, boy, does that RV7 interior look nice.
Rather have a nice O/U shotgun.

Flight Line Interiors.
How about the flight line interiors seats? They seem to be significantly lower in cost. Any feedback from those who have purchased these?

My RV-8A seats are from Flightline Interiors. Abby was recommended by a friend and I was attracted by the lower prices. However, I was not satisfied and would not go that route again.
Email me (jdubner@yahoo.com) if you need specifics.

Flightline seats in my RV9 for over 8 years now. Very satisfied with the fit and finish as well as wearability. Have flown a few 8-hour days with no issues.

Seats
Abby at flightline did my seats. She put a nice cloth upholstery with some temper foam in addition to the basic vans foam set. I was very pleased with her fair prices, and her excellent workmanship. The longest I've flown so far is two hours.

She and her husband are delightful. The longest I've flown so far is two hours - no discomfort after those 2 hours.

Hi Guys,
Just a reminder that Classic Aero offers several seat models to accommodate different budgets. For RV-7/9 customers we offer our "Sierra" seats:
Vinyl - $786
Cloth - $831
Synthetic Leather (Ultraleather) - $947
Leather - $1287
(prices are for 2 seats)
Classic Aero "Sierra" Seats
These seats feature contour cut foam shapes, and a 1" layer of memory foam. I don't think you will find much lower prices for RV seats than these.
