The term “jumpseat” is also used for flight attendant jumpseat.
Contexto
The flight attendant assigned to the forward jumpseat sustained a lacerated tongue and a compression type spinal fracture. The flight attendant assigned to the rear jumpseat sustained a contusion to her left ankle and left leg, and acute lumbosacral and cervical strains.
All flight deck crew seats were intact and undamaged except for the second observer's jumpseat which was loosely attached to the cockpit floor. That seat was similar in design, to the free-standing jumpseat used by flight attendants; the unit has a fold-down seat pan and an integral four-point restraint system. The observer seat was flush against the cockpit/cabin bulkhead and mounted to the floor with four bolts.
