Pilots all had to be fairly small in stature to fit into the planes. That's still true today, though I think they're larger now. There's not a whole lot of room in a cockpit and climbing into the planes from underneath was quite a feat. So, the people on the planes weren't all that tall. They had to be within a certain height, kinda like how submariners are today.

I own multiple pairs of driving gloves. Including multiple sets made from Nomex!

I suppose I did not think of having small pilots but that makes a lot of sense. Less weight to carry too.

I figured you had some driving gloves!

I do indeed have driving gloves. I have driving shoes. I have entire driving outfits, from full body suits to matching helmets and shoes.

Hell, I have three layer driving outfits just so I meet the most stringent of safety rules - including special socks!

When it comes to driving, I'm pretty well covered. I wore driving shoes today with the Jag, 'cause the pedal box is actually kinda small and the pedals are small, so anything like sneakers would just get in the way. The shoes I prefer are quite similar to wrestling shoes.

I know Jaguar does not leave a lot of room between the pedals, I have seen lots of complaints about that on the jag forums and whatnot groups there are. I don't have any problems with that, maybe I'm just used to it.
