Abstract

A track fitting assembly for removably securing a seat through a swivel bearing to a generally channel-shaped track secured to the fuselage of an aircraft. The track fitting assembly includes a forged body member having spaced track lugs projecting laterally from a narrow finger portion. The body member has a socket which receives a threaded shear plunger adjusting screw such that a head on the adjusting screw moves into the socket to indicate when the shear plunger is properly seated to lock the track lugs in the track.
