If you can find a used ERA to your liking, fixing it to fit your size is not terribly difficult. For a long torso you want to have the seat sit flat on the floor, no sliders and tilted back just enough to drop your head but not so much that it puts your knees up too high or so that it's noticeable when compared to the passenger seat. I didn't know that ERA declared a moratorium on deposits. Of course you know that rights in the queue are assignable, generally for a premium. If you have your heart set on an ERA, and it's understandable if you do, then ask Bob if there's a way that he will politely inquire down the list if anyone would like to make a fast buck and sell you their position. Just a thought....
