Aeronca Chief Cushions

Post by tmmiller »

I need a picture of Your Aeronca Chief Seat Cushions. I have seats, but they are not original. Talking with Bill Pancake, I understand that the original seats had a flap on the back cushion that snapped to the front of the cloth baggage compartment. I have someone that can make these but he needs dimensions and pictures. I have 2 vinyl covered slabs that came withn the project but they are not done the way the factory did it. If you can help, please contact me or send pictures to mill2583@bellsouth.net
Thanks...Matt

seat back

I have the seat out of my 41 and can send pictures if you still need them. The seat back does have a flap with some snap fasteners to attach it to the canvas "sack" I would guess that was to keep junk from falling between the seat and getting into the cables just below it. jbeckman@charter.net
