Posted 23 Apr 2020 Hey Sam,I am still in love with my Catalina, no luck here....but if you come close to the west coast we can meet and that way you can fly with my Catalina to give you an idea. Ask any question and I will try my best to help you. https://1drv.ms/f/s!AvMw5i-09AkLmyLHNPdIaLSnwTWehttps://1drv.ms/f/s!AvMw5i-09AkLtXkUN2SZuTqbxcSM Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted 24 Apr 2020 I just saw some of your pics....that's what I call freedom to fly! really nice. If I'm near Vancouver I will definitely checkout your Catalina!Can you actually fit two passengers? The Avid Catalina is not large. If you are a bit underfed/small it's great. To give you an example, My family can all fit .... I am 135Lbs 5ft4, my wife 125Lbs 5ft5 and my son is 85Lbs 4ft9. The rear seat is actually quite spacious as you have nearly 39 in across for one person. In the rear the limitation is mostly leg size and someone over 5ft4 would be too big.I have taken up a 185Lbs passenger (copilot) and found that to be snug. If both pilot and copilot are in the 180-190Lbs you definitely have to get along.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 27 Apr 2020 Well..I guess it's perfect for couples.Apparently there are 3 Avid Catalinas in Ontario with owners well in the 80's Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
