I have another fact i have discovered during researching these seats is that some original wartime carrier shots show the, four lift the dots at the top of the seat others show five, i guess the 5 are were the opening if for filling with horse hair, any comments please.

i will try and get some pictures later today.
From the post above it says that Canadian carriers had square seats as opposed to the round front ones in the Brit carriers? Is this correct for all Canadian carriers or just specific models ie MKI's or MkII's etc? Thanks in advance... Harold
