TIA, Jens Blimey Jens....that's a good question. I always remember their being standard seating in the back.

It depended on role but by and large seats stayed in. Some took them out altogether (one lot buried the things and Nige had to go and find them again!!). He did say (and this makes sense) that the outward facing central config was popular as it was easier to stow your kit, webbing, CARM etc. Hope that helps a bit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
