A seat (20) for a commercial aircraft capable of conversion to a sleeping configuration, comprises a seat back (26), a seat base (22) and a leg rest mounted within a seat shell, comprising side members (12, 14) and a back shell part (10) the rear surface of the back shell (10) defining a recess (34) for the head, and a moulding (32) defining a second recess for the feet of the passenger behind. The seat back (26) is foldable over the seat base (22) to form the main supporting surface (31) of the bed configuration. The second recess in the seat (20) requires the passenger to lie in a diagonal sleeping position, maximising the available bed length within a minimum seat pitch.

Le dossier (26) du siège peut être replié sur l'assise (22) du siège pour former la surface de support principale (31) de la configuration lit. Le second renfoncement du siège (20) nécessite que le passager soit couché en position de couchage diagonale, ce qui maximise la longueur du lit disponible pour un pas de siège minimum.
