Koito Seats Update: Three Eva Air Boeing 777-300ERs At Paine Field Going into
Service


Eva Air Boeing 777-300ER (B-16715) about ready to take off from Paine Field
on its delivery flight on Sunday.

Back in July I looked into why three brand new Eva Air Boeing 777′s were
just sitting at Paine Field. It turned out they had issues with their Koito
seats. Well, "issues" might be an understatement. Turns out not only were the
seat's safety in question, but also Koito's certification process. So much so
there was talk of an air worthiness directive from the FAA to ban the seats
in the US.

Boeing and Eva Air has been silent with how these three Boeing 777′s were
going to get seats. Last week the aircraft, which has been parked next to the
Paine Field tower for months, were moved, prepped and started to take
customer test flights (photo of B-16717). Then yesterday, the first of the
three Boeing 777′s took its delivery flight to Taiwan (photo). Of course,
the big question was what seats are inside the aircraft?

Eva Air obviously doesn't want to say too much since I am guessing they will
take legal action against Koito. Boeing has been staying pretty quiet as
well, since they have a policy not to discuss their customers. However, I
have been able to confirm that the seats in the aircraft are from Koito.

Beverly Holland with Boeing Communications explained to me that, "Koito
Industries works directly with our airline customers. Ever since this issue
came to our attention, we have been working closely with our customers who
have purchased the seats to make sure the seats are fully compliant to Japan
Civil Aviation Bureau (JCAB) and FAA regulations."

As reported previously, if the JCAB certifies a seat, the FAA also certifies
them through a US/Japan bilateral agreement. Boeing has had a team in Japan
helping to make sure the seats are able to become certified. Holland did
confirm, "Boeing is committed to helping our customers through this
situation."

Speaking with an Eva PR consultant Mary Graybill, she confirmed that the
airline is working with Koito and Boeing to have the seats installed at Paine
Field. She wasn't able to confirm when the aircraft will officially be
delivered, but did say that, "all three will be used to serve long-haul and
regional routes, in rotation with the B777s EVA is already operating." By
chance of luck, I was at Paine Field on Sunday when I got an email alert
stating a Boeing 777 filed a flight plan. Turned out to be one of the Eva Air
Boeing 777′s (B-16715) being picked up by Eva pilots and flown to Taiwan.
Due to heavy fog, the flight was delayed, but did take off at 2:35pm.

So are the seats safe in the Eva Boeing 777′s? Yes, I think so. Even though
Boeing and Eva won't talk much about what they have done, I would assume that
neither would allow the airplanes to transport passengers if they haven't
verified the safety of the seats. It is great for Eva to make money using
these Boeing 777′s, but it is disappointing they won't be parked at Paine
Field to spot anymore. At least Paine Field is quickly filling up with other
Boeing airplanes to provide plenty of eye candy.
