Yes I contacted them a while back and they said there would be certification issues with a Canadian registered aircraft and specified that all aircraft must be US registered. They also stated that they cannot supply cushions that can be installed by the customer and that all work would need to be done at their repair station.
Their seats are excellent... its too bad.

Also, I looked at many other suppliers and almost all of them only provide burn certification for the materials, nothing else. Seeing that these are basically new seats since there is no frame, just a stiff backing, I would expect some testing or docs would be required to satisfy the TSO-127a crash worthiness requirements. Its an older machine so I'm not even sure if those requirements apply.... Any ideas?
