I am gonna be flying soon and it is time to start think about seats. I plan to eventually use a custom interior from one of the fine companies advertising on VAF, but they all seem to have a long backlog.
I bought the Vans foam kit and am planning to make my own seat covers for the first flight and test period. I figure after the first flight my pilot’s seat will be pretty well soiled anyways so will need new covers.
I have a Jo Ann’s near me. And I used to sew moccasins when I was a teenager ( to pay for my flying, oddly enough) so I am decent with a sewing machine. I plan for just simple seat covers.
What material is easier to sew, gives reasonable durability, and is reasonably priced? And no I am not going to use spandex.
