You should see Joyce in the Deb. She can not reach the floor with her
feet and on top of that uses the booster seat so she can see over the
nose.
OTOH The Deb has fantastic visibility in the air although I'd guess
the Navion has better visibility.

One of the reasons we got the Navion is that it was one of VERY few
aircraft that both Ron (6'1") and I (5'2", when I round UP) could fly.


Margy, you are quite tall compared to Joyce.

With the new interior (new foam too) I don't even use the booster seat
