Anyone around the Cedar Falls Waterloo area with an RV-4 I can sit in? That may be my next airplane but need sit in one first.

I am 6' 200lbs.
 
I'm a little over an hour north of Waterloo. But you are welcome to come sit in mine. North of Osage, Iowa ten miles on a farm strip. I'm 5' 11 and 200 lbs.

Thanks. That isn't a bad drive. I responded to sophistical in Waverley and will see how that goes.
 
BTW, no 2 RV-4s are the same...you may get a generalized feel, but just moving the rudder pedals for/aft by the links and changing the seat bottom can make a big difference. Im 6'1" 200, no problem in mine at all.
 
Sold mine but at 5ft 11 and 225 pds for 12 yrs it fit like a glove. It was a very comfortable and exhilarating plane to fly. The rudder pedals are a bit narrow if you have wide feet. Ended up using Driving shoes or a thin sole slipper from Walmart to ensure my feet didn't hangup. Good luck.
