Airworthiness Directives; RECARO Aircraft Seating GmbH & Co. KG

Final rule; request for comments.

We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain RECARO Aircraft Seating GmbH & Co. KG (RECARO) Model 3510A and 3510D passenger seats. This AD requires modification and re-identification of all affected RECARO model passenger seats. 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 address the unsafe condition on these products.
