An aircraft seat includes infinitely adjustable, lateral tilt control within a specified range. The aircraft seat includes a stationary support, a tilting frame rotatably or translatably attached to the stationary base, and a tilt control mechanism to adjust the tilt within the defined range and positively lock the frame without back-driving. The tilt control mechanism may include a plurality of linkages connected to the stationary support and the tilting frame, and to each other via a threaded block; a threaded shaft adjusts the linkages and thereby adjust the tilt. Alternatively, the tilt control mechanism comprises a curved rack and a pinion. The threaded block and threaded shaft, or the rack and pinion define ACME threads to prevent back-driving.
