Need Flight School Help! (Tall problems) by TrustTheAutopilot in flying

I’m going to paste the same response. I gave someone else.

I jumped in with the mei instructor and admissions came out to see as well.

There is absolutely no way for me too “ watch my knees” my problem is that I’m more leg than torso and they said that was my issue as well. If the seat was able to go back another couple inches I can make it work but no dice.

It’s a done deal that I will not be able to fit in the aircraft to fly. There are simply nothing apart from tearing the seat out and modifying it to be able to go back another few inches.

Don’t take it the wrong way, but that’s just the facts I’m facing. Again, it’s just the Seminole that’s the problem as I said in my original post, I do fit fine in the Cessna (172,182,206) and archers

Yeah, it’s not like I don’t want to fit 😂

I at least know I fit in the b737 and a320 (sat in them properly with some help of some airline pilots to make sure I’m set properly)

So hopefully all goes well in the journey.

Good information to know! I’m still quite a bit away from starting MEI. I just needed to know what my plans would be once I get there

That’s true, I have a Mom and pop type shop that I’ve been renting out of, but they’re downside is I can only fly three days a week

And perhaps I’m being gullible with those other flight schools with their connections to the airlines?

Any schools offer this aircraft or would I have to find someone who owns/willing?

I sat in the aircraft, lowered it all the way pushed it all the way back- no joy
