Abstract: A mounting system for an aircraft fuselage includes one or more fixed anchors attached to the fuselage. A plurality of vertically adjustable anchors are likewise attached to the fuselage, wherein each vertically adjustable anchor includes a spinwheel on a threaded shaft. An adapter plate is attached to the fixed anchors and the adjustable anchors, wherein a contact surface of the spinwheel directly engages with the adapter plate.

Abstract: A system and method for use of a public address pause module with an onboard entertainment system of an aircraft cabin. The module includes a connector for connecting the module to an aircraft public address speaker and an audio detection circuit connected with respect to the connector. A micro controller unit is connected with respect to the audio detection circuit to determine whether a measured voltage of the public address speaker exceeds a pre-set threshold for a pre-determined time period and to generate a pause signal. A wireless transmitter communicates the pause signal to the onboard entertainment system thereby pausing the onboard entertainment system during onboard use of the public address speaker.
