Hey Guys,
On short trips , it doesn't bother me ...But on my longest
Cross Country ( 400 Miles ) ....Well, longest so far...
I noticed that I needed a little "lower back support"..I used a towel once,
but it didn't really work very good.....
While I was at work....I was sitting in the break room one day....
We have the office "OLD" swivel/rolling chairs.....
I noticed this "Bulb" hanging from the chairs....
They have a bladder inside , and the bulb will inflate or de-flate it....
Man, do they got those things GLUED in there.... I put a couple of holes in it because I was trying to get it out without pulling off the back of the chair.....Which I had to do anyway.... Holes are fixed now...
Well, I'm gonna have "Lumbar Support" in my Firestar.....Cool
" Little Details"
.
Gotta Fly...

Last Picture
The bulb has a piece of velcro in the form of a "Tag" it can be stuck to some Velcro that I have on the back of the seat...
I'll still be able to grab it if I need to... |

You never cease to amaze me with some of the innovative solutions you come up with. This is just another example of a great idea! Kudos!
I just wish I could use some of your ideas on my Cessna 152 without needing a form 337 and FAA engineering approval...
Guess I need to get back to working on my build... |
