Coupers, Just wondering about lack of sales in the late forties. There was an influx of aircraft after the war thinking that with so many pilots from WW11 that they would want to continue flying, but many returned home to marry and start a family ( that is one of the biggest killers of the desire to fly). I think personally if the coupe had  conventional controls it would have sold better. I was 14 years old at the time and would marvel at the looks of the coupe in model magazines. But airplane like the Cessna 120, 140 did better in sales. Mine has peddles, but sure wish I could steer with them. Mine has a slight left pull in taxi and adjusting for straight taxi is difficult to find the right spot. I know there are folks out there that love the coupe without peddles , But as they say to each his own. Dick L. 3041H  PS, Is it possible to modify to steerable peddles?

 It was the 415-G that sanders aviation introduced in 1949.
They had a deluxe Coupe with a c-85 under the TC 787 and a second model , a 415-H that would be registered with the TC 718 and that had no electrics and the smaller c-75 engine. The 415-H did not sell and few 415-G were sold.
