Abstract
A method for changing passenger seating angle according to an aircraft flight mode utilizing a raked passenger seat configuration in which the seat angle relative to an aircraft longitudinal axis increases as the passenger seat transitions from an upright condition to a reclined condition. Such a passenger seat may be utilized in an aircraft passenger seating arrangement to maximize seating density while complying with defined taxi, takeoff and landing (TTOL) certification criteria for oblique seats, among other applications and benefits.
