Default Oregon Aero Seats - RV-12 ELSA

Noticed that at least one SLSA RV-12 has seats that are clearly marked OREGON AERO. Wondering if that means that we are ok to install Oregon Aero seats during the build? Searched for the answer here but no joy.

Default Had a 6 before the my 12

Well it would likely work but you will have an unneeded cut-out for the stick where the 12 stick comes out in front of the seat cushion, curves up into position. So would it work, yes but the fit & finish wouldn't be right IMHO.

If you want something different, talk to Abby at flightline. I just had her make seats to my own design and she nailed them. They look great. I am calling them the "Ricardo Montalban Edition" . You remember, Chrysler Cordoba, rich corinthian leather? Anyway, these seat and panels are hot!
She is a delight to deal with!

See this thread for some other custom work by Abby at Flightline. Her work is excellent. The custom touches can be done even if you are building ELSA, mine were.
