This one is for structure experts. I have been dreaming for a while of cutting a window (a clear hatch, if you prefer) under the passenger seat. This would be a round window, about 12 cm (say 6 inches) in diameter. I would use it when I fly solo, with the passenger seat bottom cushion removed, as a camera window, to take pictures (verticall, or at a deep angle). Ideally, it could open, so that I can get a camera lens directly through it.
Questions: - Is it feasible without weakening the structure? - If yes, is 12cm / 6 inches diameter OK? - How much must I reinforce (how thick must the reinforcement flange be?) - How thick is the floor at that place? - Any idea for the opening mechanism? Serge Vidal KR2 ZS-WEC Tunis, Tunisia
