Height Difference Between FC's and PT's?

[Ralph L. Fullenwider]

Andy:

The roof on the 80's Birds are already a good platform as is. These is a
double diamond plate that covers the roof, and there is a railing
installed, though a short one.

Not sure but you might take a look at Traveller ( coach name) it is a FC
and a good Coach and well maintained.
