Abstract: The invention relates to a system and a method for preventing inadvertent slide deployment for an aircraft, comprising at least one sensor for sensing the proximity of a person in front of an aircraft door, and at least one optical warning means operable to provide an optical indication in the vicinity of a slide arming lever when the sensor detects the proximity of a person in front of the aircraft door. The system according to the invention provides an effective prevention for inadvertent slide deployment that is capable to guide trained and untrained persons to the information they need in order to disarm the slide in sufficient time before the door handle is gripped and pulled to open the aircraft door in normal operation conditions.

Abstract: A device for securing a mobile device in an aircraft cabin includes a first connection element having a bar receiving member. The device further has a second connection element which includes a bar which is suitable for co-operating with the bar receiving member of the first connection element, the bar being moveable between an unlocking position and a locking position, in which the bar of the second connection element is able to be brought into engagement with the bar receiving member of the first connection element.

Abstract: A passenger seat system includes a backrest and a seat, which has a first sub-portion having a first surface and a second, opposite surface to the first surface as well as a second sub-portion having a first surface and a second, opposite surface to the first surface. The sub-portions are relatively movable in order to provide first and second operating positions. In the first operating position the sub-portions are positioned in relation to the backrest one behind the other such that the first surface of the first sub-portion and the first surface of the second sub-portion form a usable total seat surface. In the second operating position the sub-portions are positioned in relation to the backrest one above the other such that one of the surfaces of the first sub-portion or the first surface of the second sub-portion forms a usable partial seat surface.

Abstract: A fastening device for fastening a movable element to a structure includes a support member and at least one belt retractor having a retractable belt and a fitting. The belt retractor may be fastened to a support member. The belt retractor is arranged in such a way that, if the fitting couples the structure and the movable element, the retractor prevents unrolling of the belt by more than a predefinable range if an external force, such as sudden mid-air turbulence acts on the movable element. Thus, the movable element is secured.
