Abstract

A seat for cabin crew, intended to be installed in an aircraft, includes a seat structure intended to be fixed to a fixed portion of the aircraft, a seat slide provided with two arms positioned on either side of the seat portion, and a seat portion mounted slidably relative to the seat slide between a retracted position and an extended position. One of the elements among the seat portion and the seat slide includes rollers capable of sliding along corresponding rails provided in the other one of the elements among the seat portion and the seat slide. The rails have a curved shape so that the seat portion forms, in the extended position, an angle of more than 10 degrees, preferably of around 14 degrees, relative to a floor of the aircraft.
