Hi guys! This is my first post on this forum and sorry that it is not more exciting but i haven't been able to find an answer. I am a prospective new PIT and I am currently searching for the right fit for me for a flight school. I live in Woodstock, GA and I am leaning strongly toward the flight school in Cartersville, GA. I am 43 yrs old and make a decent buck now-a-days and feel the time is right. I have always wanted to do this.
So, in looking at the 172, I found that it was difficult to get into-out of. I am a big boy-6-1 and 265lbs. specifically, as i stand on the foot peg the natural next move is to hop up into the seat but there's a dang wing in the way. is the wing/top of door opening any higher on a 182? I will get over it either way but just wondering for future considerations. I will try to do better in the future!
