Unsafe condition
This AD was prompted by an analysis that the affected RECARO model passenger seats contain a seat pan assembly design that can trap a person using the seat to assist during an emergency evacuation. We are issuing this AD to prevent passenger entrapment in the event a person climbs on a seat to assist during an emergency evacuation. The unsafe condition, if not addressed, could result in possible passenger entrapment, injury, or delay in the case of emergency evacuation.
Affected ADs
None.
