M2/M2A1 middle seat dimensions
« on: December 31, 2025, 12:01:32 AM »
Does anyone have handy measurements for the base  for the two back-to-back "aisle" seats (as I'd call them)?

Thanks a ton!

Here are the drawings for the center seat. Not museum quality but I doubt anyone would notice without a tape-measure. All the parts are 3/32" with 1/4 radius bends. Drawing B will need o have a mirror duplicate for the right side. The 6 holes in the seat pan are for the cast seat brackets to be riveted to. I don't know the exact size of the holes so I just made them 1/4". If there are any missing dimensions or if anything doesn't look right let me know and I'll fix it.
