The passenger seat on my A-400 #739 has a different looking eye bolt than that shown in the March 2006 Newsletter.  Also it is not threaded but instead goes thru a steel plate on the top of the seat bottom and is peaned like a rivet heat.  I will try to attach pictures.  The seat itself is original and all the dimensions are correct according to the drawings.

Was there more than one type or has somebody changed this?  Is the steel plate on the top original?  It is held in place with 2 wood screws.  If the eye bolt is not original, is anybody making a replacement?
