This is all good information, but I might add that you should also inquire about the added weight of the Porta-john I fly my 337H with 150Gal tanks for 900mn at 150kts all the time on one specific trip, and it's about all anybody's bladder or seat can take.

Good point, Roger. For me, 3 hours is it, then I need to be looking for that Porta-John, or at least a friendly tree
I can't imagine 6 hours in the seat without moving, either. It is possible, but difficult, to get up and walk around, let the blood flow back to the legs.

Two observations.

In 2001 I took my Skymaster from Miami to Boise, ID. Each of our legs was 6 hours (one in the morning and one in the afternoon). I was 57 then (read: no spring chicken) and it was OK. I didn't need a bottle or anything, just limited my consumption of liquids.

Nick Bailey's Skymaster in the Virgin Islands has a nifty device which discharges your liquid waste out of a tube on the belly of the aircraft.
