Abstract
The child's seat for airplanes comprises a mounting adapted to be fastened to a partition wall of an airplane, and a seat fastened to the mounting such that the seat can assume two different vertical positions. In an upper takeoff and landing position, the seat is located above the head strike arc of a person seated on an airplane seat, while in a lower communicating position, assumed during the flight, the seat is at chest level of the accompanying person. Thanks to the child's seat, the number of adult passengers normally occupying passenger seats of an airplane need not be reduced.
