Anyone want to enlighten me as to how wide a Husky cabin is at the front and rear seats? Both at the hip and the head. Use a tape measure please...and then let me know.

thanks!

Clay,

I honestly think this was covered before. Couple of years ago.

Yeah I'm looking for it now, but the archive of material here is so vast that I'm having trouble locating it.

It was probably buried in some argument under a thread title that has nothing to do with the Husky. :)

I can get the dimensions for you in about an hour if somone hasn't posted by then.

Rear Seat:

Hips= 25 5/8", but If you want to include the rudder cable and fairlead that are right there in the corner, you only get 24 5/8".

Head= 27" glass to glass. If you want to be realistic and include the window frames and fuselage structure in that area, you only get 24 5/8"


Front Seat:

Hips= 25 5/8" , but the trim wheel is right at your hip joint area, so you only have 23 7/8"

Thighs= 23 1/16", with the flap lever in the flaps down position

Head= 26.5" glass to glass, 26 inches if you are realistic and include the window frames, etc.

The throttle cover panel sticks out pretty far, so remember that you'll lose a bit of elbow room there, too.

Hope this helps.

This is from an A-1B.

You asked for front-seat dim.'s too.

Your "dog" going in the front seat? :D

It's enough to say that it's alot more comfortable than a SuperCub :peeper

My 150 lb. body fits both pretty good. I am not picky when I am bumming. :lol:

I'm fine in both a/c.

Really big guys may have varied results. Especially with the trim wheel being right there at your hip.
