Every time someone crashes someone else says the seat racks must've given way. I'm wondering that has in fact happened ever in the history of GA.
Seats have slid back on the rails in several instances. I had it happen to me once in training, during a takeoff in a Tecnam P92, and my CFI had to take the controls until I got the seat slid forward and locked again. Had I been solo I probably would have crashed.
