Because I can't reach the rudder pedals on most mass-produced aircraft.
Well, okay, I have to fiddle with the seat myself, and I'm average-height (5'9") for males. Sometimes it seems like the seat-controls layouts were designed for six-footers...
Because my car seat belt sits along my neck, and the little warning sign says that if the seat belt does that, "the child should be placed in the rear seat".

but if I said THAT, I'd sound like a feminist and hence have your opinions invalidated by lots of folks saying, "oh, that's just politically correctness..." even when you're right.
