Described are passenger seat assemblies including spreaders with a transitional region having a forward surface with a radius of curvature of about 3.5 to 3.7 inches and an aft surface with an angular profile configured so that the aft surface is located forward of a plane formed by a surface of the at least one seat back in a fully upright position. The passenger seat assemblies also include leg assemblies with a forward leg portion having a forward surface that is substantially aligned with a forward base frame tube, and an aft surface with an angular profile having a shape of an 'r.'

Passenger seat

Described are passenger seats with a seat pan () releasably coupled to a seat frame () via at least one coupling device (), which includes a ramp () mounted on a lower surface () of the seat pan () and a latch () pivotally coupled to an open end of the ramp (). The latch () includes a flap configured to substantially cover the open end of the ramp () when the latch () is in a closed position, and a handle () that is accessible from an upper surface of the seat pan () via an aperture () in the seat pan (). The coupling device also includes a spring () configured to position the latch () in the closed position until a force is applied to the handle () to rotate the latch () to an open position.
