Ka-6 Headrest

Hi, I am looking for some suggestions for a headrest im my Ka-6. Mine
didn't come with one, and from various pictures I've seen it looks
like there should be some padding on the slanted bulkhead right under
the turtledeck.

Thanks

Hi Pete,

Not sure if this will work for you, but I have the headrests from a
Caproni A-21 Calif. They are pretty nice with tan leather covering,
are adjustable fore and aft via an indexed tube projecting rearwards
(you would need to mount a receiving sleeve) and can be tilted via a
thumbscrew. I am at my glider club (Avenal, Ca, CCSC) helping out at
our spring contest (OK, this year it's only a "soaring camp") so I
can't take any pics right now. I will be home tuesday and can send you
one then if interested. PM me if so.
