My local FSDO sent an AWI by last week to "look" at our SNJ-3. He wanted to know if the rear seat bungee cords had a life limit.
The only thing I can find is a 25hr. inspection in the Erection/Maint. manual. Anyone have more info???

I believe it is a on condition part, if it fails, the seat will not drop, it is not a in flight critical item.

Thanks for the reply Matt. I appreciate your response. I will continue the 25 hr. Inspection
of the seat cords and list them to be replaced "on condition".

Anyone selling front and rear seat bungee cords, preferably new rather than old? Thanks
