The present disclosure relates to seating apparatus. In particular, the present application relates to an aircraft seat (1; 101; 201). The aircraft seat (1; 101; 201) includes a seat chassis (4; 104) and a seat assembly (5; 105; 205). The seat assembly (5; 105; 205) has a seat pan (6; 106; 206) and a seat back (7; 107; 207). The seat pan (6; 106; 206) is mounted to the seat chassis (4; 104) by a first pivoting connection (30; 230) defining a seat pan pivot axis (Y1) about which the seat pan (6; 106; 206) pivots. The location of the seat pan pivot axis (Y1) is fixed relative to the seat chassis (4; 104). At least one seat pan link (53-1; 153-1) is provided for controlling pivoting of the seat pan (6; 106; 206) about said seat pan pivot axis (Y1). The at least one seat pan link (53-1; 153-1) is coupled to the seat pan (6; 106; 206) in front of the seat pan pivot axis (Y1). The present disclosure also relates to an aircraft (2) including one or more of the aircraft seat (1; 101; 201).
