Of Interest to this Conference
3” Wider middle seat does not make overall 3-row seat any longer (which allows the airlines to use this seat without any regulatory hurdles)
Staggered design – shoulders, elbows, thighs, not longer adjacent
When seats slid over Aisle is 43 inches wide....facilitate in flight bathroom visits from front and back rows of aircraft in larger skychair/wheelchair?? Is this a problem?
Convertible seat option

Since I first reached out Brandon (AAPR) and Peggy (NAAFA) have been huge supporters of our idea.
They have publicly endorsed us and campaigned for us to the FAA and their members.
So THANKS!
