Mine was always in the way during flight. When retracted, it is right at chest
height in front of your arm. You also need a spot of velcro on it and on the
window to keep it from swinging out in front of you during the flight. It
doesn't fit well on framed windows, and frankly, you get a bunch more comfort
by popping the door open, at least in a Six. I took mine off after putting up
with it for more than a year.

That's a silly statement. My plane came with one, 12 years ago, and I
found it irritating and tacky looking. I removed it. You can have it
(as a spare) if you want.

I wish everyone would make up their minds. I've been thinking about buying
one (wonderful Texas summers and all), as I frequently find myself taxiing
with my hand stuck out the vent window to "scoop" a little air.

Tacky looking? Probably... What was "irritating"?
