ACES II Seat Dimensions

[jagdleopard]

Does anyone know the dimensions of an ACES II seat? Mainly looking for the width at the bottom and the height perpendicular from the base.

While ago I posted the same question. Here:

I built an Aces 2 replica being part of a community which build F-16 cockpit 1:1 scale  for flight simulators

https://reddogsmodels.wordpress.com/2017/10/27/something-different-11-f-16-cockpit/

 

The cockpit floor of the F-16 from left wall to right wall is just under 52cm

The seat width is about  50.8 cm at its widest point

 

height perpendicular from the base is hard to get, because the base isn't horizontal, and my base in the picture below is NOT accurate As I had to deviate fromt he real plans 

So draw a line on an ace picture and chances are that I can give you a value

The IPMS-NL magazine had an article with great drawings in 1988. It gives 50.7 cm as the width, and 125 cm as the height along the rear side (not perpendicular to the base). I posted the article on my website for downloading, but it might be gone soon because I'm not sure about the copyright situation:

The Verlinden Lock-On book for the F-16 has some pretty good 1:12 scale 3-view drawings of the ACES-II seat.
