RV-10 Seat Inquiry

rpulido

I'm New Here
Long time lurker, hopefully future builder, current dreamer.

I found this picture tagged RV-10 interior with seats with integrated seat belts.
Is this an RV-10?
Is this a product offered by someone?
Custom built?
Maybe retrofit an automotive seat?

Any ideas?

It stirred up a lot of emotions in people at the time it was published, but if you are an EAA member and are interested in reading what the designer thought about those seats (and many of the other modifications done on that airplane, do a search in the Sport Aviation archives for an article titled Homebuilder's Handbook: At What Price?

If you have no access to EAA's web site but do to face book, you can find the article here

This is a one off design done by the builder. Scott?s links has the whole story.

If you want to purchase something similar, but without some of the design concerns, take a look at Aerosportproducts.com
 
I have a t-shirt that my ex-wife gave me (while we were still married, yet its more fitting now), that seems to apply here.

It read, ?It seemed like a good idea at the time?
