• a four-bar linkage pivotably attached to the sled and to the aircraft seat, the linkage including at least an upper portion and a lower portion;
• a metering plate disposed between the two parallel rails behind the sled, the metering plate including a substantially vertical array of second holes set thereinto, each second hole associated with a height of the aircraft seat;
• and
• a locking pin controllable by the occupant;
• wherein the locking pin is configured for insertion through the first hole and a second hole of the array to secure the aircraft seat at a height associated with the second hole;
