Shoulder harnesses

Postby wingnut99 » Thu Dec 10, 2020 7:01 pm

Just wondering what anyone else has been using for restraints? I can find ATV/Dune buggy type one's on Amazon for a reasonable price that will probably be suitable but the shoulder straps on most aren't long enough to reach the attachment in the bay in the fuselage. I found one that was 75" which I think would be long enough but it wasn't unavailable in any color but bright green. I see that Van's sells anchor cables with swagged ends for $150 which would make the shorter one's work. Any thoughts?

Crow makes a Sonex harness ready to go or you can have them make a custom set.

Based on discussion on the forum last year I purchased a set from them. Great product, company, and people. Definitely get my recommendation.
