I am considering changing out the front captain's chairs in my FC.
Does anyone know what new model(s) can be used?

Thanks

Hey Scott and group,

I put new Flex Steel in my 81 last year and don't remember the model, could
probably find it, whereas I keep all documentation. The only problem I had, was
the new chairs did NOT mount directly onto my existing pedistals and I had to
make some modifications. Also, the seats were about four inches higher, and
therefore I had to make a booster platform for me to rest my feet on because
even in the lowest postion my feet would not touch the floor. That by the way
was my introduction to OB at the woodshop on the AFB here, and since then I have
made built-in cabinets for the motor home where the dinette went, a queen sized
mission bed, two night stands, three fly rod holders, a gun rack and a upright
paper towel holder.

We drove the new Dodge van (we bought from Jay Darst, what a guy) for eleven
days, really enjoyed ourselves. However we missed not sleeping in our own beds
and motel beds are by far and large "the pits." I had not been over to the Blue
Bird in almost a month, went over yesterday, connected the batteries, turned on
the fuel solenoid, and first turn she fired right up. It being 38 degrees I
thought I would light off the furnaces and they fired right up. There are some
times I will certainly miss...............

Hope y'all have a Happy Thanksgiving.
