When brand new?

After 100 hours on them?

After 200 hours on them?

With mud, sweat and grime on them?

They actually sat on their parachute...
I did not say that it was connected to them...

I'd have to side with David Aiken,

there were many airplanes that did not have cushions of any kind because that is where the pilot's parachute would fit, and act as a cushion.

I could be wrong.

Cheers,

David

Perhaps these URLs may help? Yet if you ARE doing a "Tora T-6 Zero" I have some contacts for you... e-mail me at: PearlHarborHistory AT Hotmail.com
