Piper Seat Recline Lever

thingiverse

This is a replacement handle for Piper PA-28 Aircraft with reclining bucket seats, and will likely fit other models. Printing: I used ABS for mine, I'm sure that PC would do okay too. There actually isn't a lot of torque on it at all. PLA would likely not hold up well as soon as the plane is left in the hot sun. For the FAA police - this can easily be installed with a small cotter-pin which requiters no tools to install or remove. Also, this is not required for any access or egress, it is simply to recline the seat. Returning the seat to its upright position does not require a handle, but rather just sitting up (the springs in the seat lock it automatically).
