Hey guys,
I have a little project this week. We have a Pitts S-2C and the back seatpan is aluminum. Well you know what happens when you rub aluminum, it turns black. I had a brand new chute and the back is starting to turn black from sliding in and out on that aluminum. I want to cover it with something. Maybe thin carpet? Maybe some other material? Any ideas? Whatever I use needs to be pretty slick for sliding down in the plane.
