I have heard of this.... No I haven't flown one. I'm not active 
The best I had experience with was at NAS Memphis, GCA. The controlers would allow us (Instructors at the Navy flying club - C-206) to practice GCAs to the deck, 0/0 conditions. That was fun. Hit the deck, lift up the hood and there you are, center line main runway.

I look back at some of the thinks we did many years ago 
In over 2000 hrs of flight time, I should have killed myself.

Spoke to the dealer today about some stuff and they asked about the seats. I told em no real change since they last looked at them. They told me the company who manufactures the climate control system contacted them because they saw something about my concern. They mentioned the possibility of giving me entirely new seat(s), from soup to nuts. Leather and all. they said they didnt want the dealer messing with it and may want my seat(s) for testing. I told em id be all in for the swap. will see what happens.

Update: the company that makes the climate controlled seats for our trucks has decided to build me a complete new seat to be installed and they want my seat for inspection/testing because its not operating within spec
