Hi Larry, I have a Coupe without rudder pedals and at first I was hesitant. In retrospect, there was no need for concern, the Coupe does great without the pedals although it would appear that a Coupe with pedals will command a better price than one without. The rudder pedals come way down the list regarding reasons to purchase or not to purchase. Get the airplane to someone who really knows Coupes before buying it. I recommend the Wrights in Springfield, Illinois. If the owner would not be happy with you taking the plane to someone who knows, then don't do the deal. Pete

Subject: [COUPERS-FLYIN] To rudder or not to rudder
----[Please read http://ercoupers.com/disclaimer.htm before following any advice in this forum.]----
I know this is probably not going to generate much in the way of an definite
answer but I need a bit of help. I am about to purchase a "coupe" and I just
found out it does NOT have rudder pedals. Now I know that should not come as
any big surprise but in the back of my mind I was convinced I needed pedals.
You see while I'm not exactly a green horn when it comes to airplanes I have
never had the fun of flying in one of these fine machines. I guess what I
need to know is it really all that big of a deal? Is it worth the investment
in time and money to convert or should I just leave well enough alone and go
fly the thing.
If I were to convert can anyone give me a ball park estimate on cost.
Thanks
