Scratch one F18 -Truman (no crash)

How about the guy who goes full up? Or gal maybe? Rudders pedals fully extended towards you. Since we are talking about comparison to F/A-18, this is akin to the person who extends the lumbar support extender (only people who use it are tiny people) which is fully impossible to reset once you are in the seat. So you have to unstrap and get back out. Terrorists
Why are the seat different in every plane? Some canted to the right, other the left, useless lumbar, etc. Can never get a consistent good seat position across the fleet.

Did get to a plane the other day and MX was there installing a new seat cushion. Never seen one so fluffy and fresh.

The motherless, feckless monsters who keep locking the shoulder harnesses on the 220 will have a comeuppance, I say....

Another neat feature of the Guppy is that one side or another of the shoulder harness will just lock up on its own. I swear one of these days I’m going to be awkwardly reaching backward and up over my shoulder to shake it loose and my entire back/shoulder are going to seize up.

One of the more realistic bits of Sully was him arthritically donning the shoulder harness.
