- and
- a second strap coupled to a second point of the seat and configured to provide a second load to a second wall hook, wherein the second wall hook is configured to be installed such that in response to a second load, the second wall hook rotates from a second closed position to a second open position.
An aircraft lavatory, comprising:
- a first wall;
- a seat back integrally formed with the first wall;
- a first seat side coupled at a first joint of the seat back;
