Abstract: The invention relates mainly to a seat intended to be installed in an aeroplane, having: a backrest having a front face against which a passenger is intended to lean, and a rear face on the opposite side from the front face, a tray, notably a retractable tray, known as a meal tray, positioned on the rear face of the backrest, characterized in that said seat also has a device for supporting a portable screen, comprising a support element that is positioned on the rear face of the backrest and movable between a folded position and a deployed position in which it is able to support a portable device.

Abstract: A joint assembly in an aircraft connecting a belly fairing to the fuselage of the aircraft. The belly fairing has a sewing angle connected to a main belly fairing section, while the fuselage has a fuselage skin with an exterior and an interior. The joint assembly includes a sewing angle with a flange connected to the fuselage skin exterior at a fixation zone of the fuselage skin, with the fixation zone being overlapped by the flange where it is connected thereto. The joint assembly further includes a stringer connected to the fuselage skin interior and overlapping the fixation zone. This joint assembly is less susceptible to vibrations. The disclosure herein also pertains to a method of providing such a joint assembly.

Abstract: A block including at least one glass ply at least partially covering an outer surface of a core made from composite material. A method for reinforcing a block made from a composite material, including a glass ply placed in a mold, such as to cover the base of the mold; the block is positioned in the mold; the edges of the glass ply are folded such that the glass ply is molded to the outer edge of the block; the mold is closed with a cover; the block housed inside the mold is cured in an oven such as to polymerize the glass ply; and the glass-ply-covered block is recovered.
