Technical Manual Illustration: Standard Seat Installation, Aircraft Passenger/Crew Seats

This technical illustration, taken from an aircraft maintenance manual, shows the standard installation of crew or passenger seats -- including inertia reel, seat belt, shoulder harness, and quick-disconnect locking mechanism. Diagrams like this guided ground crews and aircrew in properly securing personnel aboard aircraft such as the A-1 Skyraider, which was sometimes configured to carry extra passengers on special operations missions.
