The club seating has the rear seats further back, so it is easier to get
into an aft CG situation than with the conventional seating. I don't
believe a 7th seat is available for the club seating arrangement either.
I have a conventional seating Six-260. When I was looking, I thought I
wanted a club seat configuration. After considering it though, I realized
I didn't really want to have kids sharing foot space... Now that #5 is
on his way, I'm glad I have the conventional seating, as it allowed me to
add a 7th seat. The conventional seating is a little tight for middle seat
leg room, but on the other hand, if you are tall the club seating limits
the aft positioning of the pilot's seat.

Does anyone have information regarding the feasibility of retrofitting
air-conditioning into a Piper Cherokee, possibly a 6/260? I live in
the southeast and would be flying toward Florida where heat and
humidity are a real challenge much of the year. A/C is one of things
that my wife would consider a must in any aircraft we were to
purchase.

And as long we are talking about Sixes, I would appreciate any
opinions regarding the pros and cons of the club seating that is
available in some planes.

Thanks in advance for any help.
