During the reassamble of a B747 Flightdeck after a D-Check I had the pleasure to reinstall those "dog-lead style" devices. I was amazed at the two downright tiny screws that hold the whole bracket attached to the airframe. I am not talking about the bolt that holds the steel cables on, I am talking about two screws underneath that attach the whole unit. I would only go down that flightdeck window when flames are licking through the door and smoke starts filling the upper deck. Absolutely scary!
It seems to be a similar case when pax seats are designed to withstand 9G but the seattracks are limited to 6G only.
Huge bolt to hold the steel cable on the dog lead style device attached to a bracket, two tiny screws that attach the whole bracket to the airframe, what the....?
