We just had the pedals installed for the Pegasus AD and find they are a very
poor fit compared to the old ones. The pair we received have several major
changes that render them almost useless to our larger than size 6 shoes.
The top horizontal footrest bars are about 13mm (1/2 inch) shorter in width
than the old ones.
The "S" tubing for the cables sticks out at the top with a bell shaped
flange catching the sides of our shoes.
The "S" tubing is also not nearly angled out from the pedal on the bottom
curve, making it impossible to get my US size 10 shoes to fit in any normal
way. In fact I can't even get my shoes to lie flat on the pedals.

Are others having this problem or were your sets of pedals identical, except
for the reinforcement, to the old ones?

Thanks,
Doug

I'm interested, but we might as well order the rudder pedals at the same
time for the AD 2005-08-12 that is also coming out.

Anyone out there planning to order new aileron/elevator hinge pins from
Centrair to comply with the latest Pegasus AD? Maybe we could pool our
orders.
