  • weight of upholstery and seats

    Can any who installed upholstery to their aircraft give me the weight of your panels and seats. Upholstered panels 28,8lbs, 2 front seats 26,4lbs and rear seat 19,8lbs

    My rear seat is about the same weight as yours, give or take. I have never weighed the front seats.
    We didn't use any upholstered panels so I can't offer a comparison there, just a few pounds of fabric with a minimum of coatings.

    One thing I have learnt is that even the headliner fabric needs a thin coat of silver. The reflected UV still reaches the inside of the cabin.

      Thanks Johnathan, I just want to compare so that I know I am not out of the average weight relative to other builders. My interior will be heavier, but its what I want. My wife require it to look more finished on the inside for her to fly with me.
