A seat bottom assembly, movable between stowed and deployed configurations, includes a seat pan plate having a front side, a rear side, a left side, a right side, a top surface, and a bottom surface. The seat pan plate is configured to move between stowed and deployed positions. The assembly also includes a pair of beam braces configured to engage a seat frame of a seat; a pair of front links operationally connecting the beam braces and the seat pan plate; and a pair of rear links operationally connecting the beam braces and the seat pan plate. Each of the front links is disposed on an opposite side of the seat pan plate from the other front link; and each of the rear links is disposed on an opposite side of the seat pan plate from the other rear link. The assembly also includes a seat cushion having a first top portion, a second top portion, and a bottom portion. The bottom portion of the seat cushion is generally disposed on the top surface of the seat pan plate. The bottom portion of the seat cushion and the seat pan plate are equally inclined when the seat pan plate is in the stowed and deployed positions. The second top portion is generally horizontal when the seat bottom assembly is in the deployed configuration, and negatively inclined relative to horizontal when the seat bottom assembly is in the stowed configuration.
