7. Seats that move independently forward / aft, and up / down.
The fully adjustable pilot seats on your wish list are available as an option. I think it is around an additional Euros 9000 each seat.
As an asside I wonder if anyone can explain to me why the CAT B WAT graphs indicate an increase in weight with decrease in windspeed at altitude.
What you describe as "an increase in weight with a decrease in windspeed at altitude" is a misinterpretation of the way in which a weight penalty is imposed for operating cross-wind or downwind at altitude.
The chart title actually states that this is the WAT for TAKE-OFF, LANDING and IGE MANOEUVRES with a RELATIVE WIND AZIMUTH 10 to 350 deg ie wind from 10° right of the nose clockwise through to 10° left of the nose. ie
The chart accounts for out of wind manoeuvres.
There is an important NOTE on the CAT B WAT Chart which says: "no windspeed limitation exists for headwind conditions (wind azimuth
+10 deg)
Check your QRH and RFM revision state if you cannot find this statement.
Therefore as long as you are into wind you do not have to apply the weight penalty ie you can use the "20 KTAS and BELOW" line even in a 45 KIAS headwind and do not suffer a weight penalty.
Hope this makes the graph clearer.
