I recently purchased a 35 % pilot for my 35% Extra 260. You would think AeroWorks would be on the ball and sell a customer the right size pilot for their airplane. I phoned them and asked specifically for the right size pilot to fit their 35% Extra. When I got it and put it in the cockpit the thing looks like a dwarf. Not even close. Now the thing is going to have to go back and I have to imagine that I need to order a 40% pilot (at least) to get a pilot large enough to reasonably fill the cockpit. Very disappointing that a company like Aeroworks cannot sell a pilot that is the right size for their airplane !
