I've only had a couple of flights in a C-2, mostly because of the first one....<g> The seats face backwards and due to the planes attitude both you and your seat lean forward slightly.... The only way I found to be semi comfortable was to tighten up the 4 point harness as much as you could stand then you could just kind of hang there in your seat...<g> The plane also has very bad yaw instability that gets worse as it slows for landings. On approach the pilot is literally kicking the rudder back and forth to keep the plane from skidding.... I'm not prone to motion sickness but I had some twinges of vertigo.....<g>
