Great Product

  • By Jonathan from Westminster CO USA on Monday, March 9, 2015
  • Pros: Washable cover, Inexpensive
  • Cons: None so far
  • Review: I've only had a few opportunities to use my cushion but it makes a huge difference in visibility. I fly a Cessna 172P and I am barley 5'6 and the cushion made a night and day difference. My only concern will be durability. I wonder how long it will last. Just like mattresses that get slept on too long in 1 spot they tend to create a dent. The good news is that the cushion is inexpensive.

This is a great fix for too low seat

  • By Steve from Arlington VA USA on Tuesday, May 15, 2012
  • Pros: Does exactly what it's made to do
  • Cons: None that I can see
  • Review: I fly an old beat-up Cessna 172. The left hand seat is so low that even at 6 feet-tall I could barely see over the glare shield. I prefer to sit up high and the only way to get more height was to move the seat further forward. That cramped up my knees on any flight longer than 30 minutes-- no fun! This cushion does the trick. The extra 3" under my butt puts me right where I like to be and allows me to move the seat back for more legroom. This is great product for those flying older aircraft with non-height adjustable seats. Love it! Steve

Great product for a bit of lift!

  • By A Customer from Central City IA USA on Thursday, August 23, 2012
  • Review: This is just what I needed to see better from the right seat of our little Piper Warrior! My husband seat is about an inch higher than mine and our view out the front was different. An added couple of inches was the perfect lift for me. It's very comfortable, doesn't get in the way at all, and fits on the seat perfectly. It also doesn't affect where my feet are (I can still reach the rudders and brakes if needed). I anticipate it will wear well. Thanks Pilot Store!

I would buy this product again

  • By A Customer from Atlanta GA USA on Tuesday, September 11, 2012
  • Pros: Durable, well constructed
  • Cons: Have not had long enough for any negatives
  • Review: Actually it was just a tad too high so I ordered the 2" cushion as a replacement. Still keeping the 3" for future use.

An unlikely vision enhancement tool

  • By Bill from Goose Creek SC USA on Tuesday, September 2, 2008
  • Pros: Good quality, fair price
  • Cons: none
  • Review: This item really helped me see better in the cockpit. Being vertically challenged this item was a good choice. I feel more confident and have much better visibility than before. Thanks so much.

Good cushion!

  • By Mike from Bismarck ND USA on Monday, January 16, 2012
  • Pros: Perfect height and softness.
  • Cons: None yet
  • Review: Works great. Not too tall. I am 6' 1" so I was worried it would have me sitting too tall in the cockpit. I fly a Cessna 206 and it is just the right height. Good width too. The sciatic pain I was getting in my right leg on long flights has improved significantly.

Nice product that works

  • By Brian from Stafford VA USA on Wednesday, September 4, 2013
  • Pros: Carrying handle, durable cloth material
  • Cons: Relatively expensive
  • Review: I bought this for a frequent traveler who is a 5' 3" female. Overall it works well and is quite comfortable. It is firm enough to raise the sightline for this person enough to see over the nose of a C172. Nice carrying handle and looks to be very durable material. I tried to find something better/cheaper through Amazon, but decided that other pilots are using this and if it worked for them...

Meets my needs

  • By A Customer from Palo Alto CA USA on Thursday, April 23, 2015
  • Pros: good size, easy to transport with handle
  • Cons: Slides against seat back
  • Review: Works well to improve seating position. Wish it had velcro or other means to keep it from slipping around seat back.

  • By A Customer from Elko NV USA on Saturday, October 8, 2011
  • Review: Too "squishy" to raise my seat higher and that is what I was looking for.  I will keep looking for something firmer that does not squish like a pillow.

A Little Too Soft

  • By Pat, Super Decathlon pilot from Friendswood, Texas on Sunday, December 16, 2007
  • Pros: Well-made case, I received my order quickly.
  • Cons: For me, it doesn't provide the firmness I was looking for.
  • Review: I fly aerobatics and use a back pack. The manufacturer's seat cushion positions me too high in the cockpit so I removed it. I wanted a firm, 3 inch cushion to give me the right height and support when inverted. This particular cushion is too soft. By squeezing it with two fingers I can almost bring my two fingers together. The case is well made and I intend on trying to find some industrial foam rubber to supplement or replace the internal foam rubber. If My Pilot Store could recommend replacement foam I would be very appreciative.

3" cushion small hineys

  • By Amy from Bloomington IN USA on Thursday, November 17, 2011
  • Review: The cushion fits my rear well , but if you have a larger hiney, it may be too small. Also, I use this in a Crown Vic and the cushion is way too small for a Crown Vic seat! Wish I had kept my other cushion from different company. The good thing about these cushions is that that don't sink down when you sit on them. Great and maintaining it's form!
