Sea King(?) seat 1967

[phantomfixer]

1967 serviceable tag on a Sikorsky USN seat...has been in storage for 30 years or so...and was very happy to bring it home..I found pics of an USAF HH3 in the museum showing this seat, but having Navy data plate, I am assuming it to be from a Sea King...has the vertical adjustment and track lock adjustment...needs the inertial reel assy and the straps, which I might still have a set...inertial reel might be a midnight raid at the ISO hanger on base...they throw away the old straps every major ISO inspection...the reel with cable might be hard to get

Something thrown together while the storm passed...

Did you ever get a inertial reel for the seat?
