What kind of chair do you "fly" from?

What chair is everyone using?Have trouble finding that a locking swivel….and lockable wheels. Thx

I don’t have pedals, so a standard office chair works for me. I don’t know of any office chairs with lockable casters. Maybe a small piece of carpet under your chair might keep it in place? You’d be shocked at what you can find in a carpet store’s dumpster - find a piece of shag and cut it down to the size you need. If it doesn’t work, at least it didn’t cost anything…

Pretty easy to buy locking casters. Just make sure they are the same height and caster angle as your originals if your only replacing one.

Just get your favorite office or gaming chair then buy replacement lockable castors off Amazon. One of the mods on here has a favorite brand.

I just use a desk mat with a few holes in it for the casters can fall into.

I use some standard high back leather office chair I’ve had for 15+ years. I’m on carpet, so I don’t need locking wheels.

Corsair T2. Sit in it for at least 12 hours a day working and occasionally flying.

Ooo I like the idea of this. I play on my Xbox, but the sofa is at 90deg to the TV so I pretty much lay on it while flying.

I might build something like this.
