CRASHWORTHY TROOP/UTILITY SEAT

The unique characteristics of the EastlWest AAATS
Crashworthy Troop/Utility Seat System are:

Energy Absorption System - Variable

Load Energy Attenuation

System (VLEAS) is Patented** and is a new state-of-the-art passive energy
absorption system designed by East/West. This system is designed to absorb
and limit impact loads, thereby providing pelvic and spinal protection upon
vertical impact in an emergency crash situation.

Easy Replacement of the VLEAS - In the

event the VLEAS has

been activated due to hard landings during normal flight maneuvers, it can be
easily replaced in minutes.

Harness Restraint System - The

AAATS System is designed for a

three(3), four(4), or five(5) point occupant restraint system which is released by
means of a single centerpoint rotating release buckle. The five(5) point restraint
system includes a strap between the occupant's legs, which prevents submarining
under the lap belt.

The AAATS System is a versatile Troop/Utility Seat which can

be bulkhead, floor, or ceiling mounted for forward, aft and side
facing seat configurations. It is easily retrofitable in any rotary
wing aircraft (such as: H-1, UH-1Y, H-3, H-46, H-47, H-53,
H-60, and V-22). It has been designed for quick and easy
installation and removal by maintenance personnel for rapid
mission reconfiguration of aircraft.

THE AAATS SYSTEM HAS BEEN DYNAMICALLY TESTED AT THE NAWC

HORIZONTAL ACCELERATOR FACILITY, PATUXENT RIVER, MARYLAND
