M4 Rear Sling Seat Approval
Today the FSDO called to tell me they signed off on my M4 rear sling seat field approval. I promptly went to the FSDO and picked up the original stamped 337! I plan on doing the modification this winter. If anyone needs a copy of the 337 for their own approval just let me know.

sling seat
When I was in Moultrie last year I saw that there was a tie down tab welded to the rear port side corner cabin at the bottom of the bulkhead. My M5 does not have one of these and looks as if it never did.
Another good add on while down to frame.

Rear seat
If I remember correctly, you can relocate seat base attatch point slightly further aft for a bit more rear leg room. It's like Mx7?
Smarter folks than me can help with the details on it

Maybe I need to look into this a little farther. I'll let y'all know monday. I was basing that on the 1355 drawing which is the rear position upper sling seat tube. On our MDL, those are the only fuselages that are approved. Just thought of something, 1355 is the quick release version. there may be one for the bolt in.

Ok, I think I got this. The M-5, the rear position was optional via 1235E. Starting with the M-6, the rear position was the standard installation. For the M-5, there are 2 options for installing the rear position, left side receptor for the upper sling seat tube per 1235E. There is a bracket (item 1267B that is not depicted on 1235E and was changed per BD way back when to the diagonal tube -3). And the diagonal tube -3 and since both require welding, the tube is easier and actually adds some structural strength to that area which cant be a bad thing.
After that is all welded in, you can go with the bolt in upper sling seat tube 1211E, or use the quick release system (recommended) 1344B.
Don't you just love the Maule print bunny trail system?
