Re: I need a smaller yoke in my Stinson 108!
Stinsoner...your dilemma brings back memories..My dash 3 had same problem when trying to aviate w/teenager...looks like the yoke would have to be size of a baseball to clear those knees!!!You will have to mod the seat...I am talkin lowrider position...havent a clue how much adjustment original seat had...looks like he could reach rudder pedals from the rear seat!!!!That may be solution...take out one of the front seats altogether!!..LOL...thin
