The German Air Force has developed a modified UH-1 pilot seat designed to improve comfort by increasing support to the thigh and lower back, providing better vibration dampening and increasing cold weather comfort. This seat was tested for vibration dampening, pilot acceptance, and impact tolerance in a side-by-side test with the standard UH-1 seat. The modified seat is more comfortable than the standard UH-1 seat. The modified seat provides better impact protection than the standard seat, provided that the seat frame and restraint system do not tear loose. The modified seat does not provide better vibration dampening than the standard UH-1 seat. (Author)
