REFLECTOR:Seat placement

Being 6’ 5 ½” myself, I think that is an important option.  Seems to me
there is a long-weezie like myself (I have a cold) out there who is flying
an XL.  If you’re out there, how do you fit with the standard seats?

BTW, for all you normal sized and vertically challenged reflectorites, being
tall isn’t all that great.  You don’t fit in your mother-in-laws guest bed,
especially if it’s a twin with head and foot board;  traveling coach to Hong
Kong (15+ hours from LAX) is utterly miserable;  not to mention having to
bend your head in stupid positions when you have to relieve yourself on the
same flight;  and don’t get up fast in the kitchen if your kid just left a
cupboard open...otherwise, it’s OK.

Sorry...

The taller one is the more you need to slide your seat rearward and the
lower the seat positions on the downward canted rails.

The use of seats in the airplane is just so over-rated. I installed 
the seat frame as is and in the XL I have no headroom problem I am 
6'2".
