The present invention achieves technical advantages as a pilot and passenger seating. An aircraft employs a pilot seat, comprising a contoured structure having ergonomically formed and padded surfaces, with left and right arm supports that include an articulated control knob, movable in three rectangular axes and rotatable about a vertical axis to provide one or more aircraft steering functions for an aircraft, and a touch-sensitive control surface for controlling one or more power system components. A passenger seat, having a contoured structure, having ergonomically formed and padded surfaces, a headrest, a seat, a left support member, and a right support member are adapted to cradle a portion of a passenger's body to support the passenger during travel.

An interior component carrier system comprises a first and second installation rail. Each rail includes at least one connecting portion connectable to an associated primary structure component to fasten the rail to the component, and a carrier portion extending from the connecting portion in a direction along a longitudinal axis of the system. The system further comprises a first carrier element having a first end connected to a first carrier rod extending in a direction along the longitudinal axis and a second end connectable to a first interior component, wherein the first carrier rod is fastened to the carrier portion of the first rail, and a second carrier element having a first end connected to a second carrier rod extending in the longitudinal axis direction and a second end connected to the first carrier element, wherein the second carrier rod is fastened to the second rail carrier portion.

A connecting rod coupling device for attaching a component to an aircraft fuselage and/or stiffening the fuselage has a first coupler, and a second coupler couplable to the first coupler. The first coupler has an elongate body with a first channel on a lateral surface along a first longitudinal axis. The second coupler has a hollow-cylindrical portion, which, on an inner face along a second longitudinal axis, has a second channel complementing the first channel. The hollow-cylindrical portion has a radial cutout through which the elongate body is radially insertable into the second channel from outside the hollow-cylindrical portion. The second coupler has a closure body, which closes the radial cutout, and can be positioned removably in the cutout to complete the second channel on a radially internal face. The second coupler also has an element, pushable onto the hollow-cylindrical portion to secure the closure body on the hollow-cylindrical portion.

A vehicle region with a roof section of a primary structure and with two luggage compartments. One of the luggage compartments comprises a detachable luggage compartment flap and a luggage compartment top, which forms the upper boundary of a part of a luggage space. A detachable fastening device can rotatably fasten the luggage compartment flap on the luggage compartment. A front edge of the luggage compartment top is at a distance from an end point in an intermediate space above a luggage compartment, to which end point a side of a ceiling panel is movable, the distance being greater than or equal to a width of the ceiling panel. Methods for installing and removing a ceiling panel above two luggage compartments are provided, wherein the ceiling panel is guided at least partially through a luggage space of a luggage compartment when the luggage compartment flap has been removed.

A method for producing an aircraft fuselage for simplifying and accelerating the production of the aircraft fuselage. The method includes providing a fuselage structure which surrounds an interior space and has an inner side facing the interior space, providing an insulating panel for insulating the fuselage structure, wherein the insulating panel has an inner surface and an outer surface, providing a film which is provided with electric strip conductors, fastening the film to the inner surface of the insulating panel, and attaching the insulating panel to the inner side of the fuselage structure.

In an example, a method for installing a decoration panel in a ceiling assembly in an aircraft is disclosed. The method comprises removing a generic panel from the ceiling assembly to produce an opening in the ceiling assembly. The method also comprises inserting the decoration panel through the opening in the ceiling assembly. The method also comprises coupling the decoration panel to the ceiling assembly using a plurality of fasteners such that the decoration panel extends across the opening in the ceiling assembly. The plurality of fasteners includes a first type of fastener and a second type of fastener.

A support bracket for holding interior components of a vehicle includes a base plate and an add-on module, which are engageable with each other to facilitate replacement and maintenance.

A moisture control system includes an anode coupled to an insulation blanket that is positioned between an inner wall and an outer wall of an aircraft fuselage, a cathode coupled to an interior surface of the outer wall, and a power control unit coupled to the anode and the cathode to apply voltage across the anode and the cathode. When the voltage is applied across the anode and the cathode, moisture is drawn away from the anode and toward the cathode on the interior surface of the outer wall and guided along a drainage path provided via structural members disposed between the inner wall and the outer wall toward a drainage port.

A window unit for an aircraft includes a wall module having a side wall laterally delimiting an aircraft cabin. The side wall has a window opening and the wall module has retaining portions. A window module has a window frame accommodating at least one windowpane and the window module has fastening portions. A fastening configuration fastens the window module on the side wall in a region of the window opening. The fastening configuration is formed by a respective fastening portion engaging with a respective retaining portion. The retaining portions and the fastening portions are movable into a plug-in position by a plug-in movement of the window module and are movable from the plug-in position into a securing position by a rotary movement of the window module. The wall module and the window module are interconnected by a form-locking connection in the securing position.
