| Re: Securing / Bolting Seats in a Tornado
Guys,
As a scratchbuilder can I offer an impartial observation here?
The issue does not seem to have arisen as the result of any failures in over 800 builds to date. This indicates to me that the perceived problem is theoretical rather than actual. OK it may not be 'good engineering practice' but it apparently works.
It also appears to be accepted by the regulatory authorities so that's fine.
I know guys on here tend to go somewhat overboard with the specification and design of their cars, and that's not a bad thing but if anyone is concerned about their seat mounts Andy Green has posted a simple 'piece of mind' fix.
Since there is no actual problem, what's the problem?
If anyone does eventually experience problems with the standard setup Andys solution is a cheap and easy retrofit. QED
Just my $.02
