You are of the ideal proportion to remedy a prime Pitts deficiency--that of the upright seat position. With short legs,you could have a backpack pad/chute made by Butler that would simulate more of a Sukhoi type body position ie, 45 degree seat back. With the pad 1/4 " thick by your shoulders and 6 inches thick by your seat, you would favorably change to a more G worthy position. What an opportunity! Call Manley Butler. Rick Volker
