Abstract
A safety assembly for a passenger seat in a vehicle such as an airplane is made up of a padded seat cover for fitting over the seat and a safety suit sandwiched between the seat cover and the seat cushions. The seat cover can be opened up by means of a closure member to make the suit accessible to the passenger. The suit is so constructed that the passenger may sit down upon it while donning it. The suit is formed to be adaptable to a wide variation in passenger size, and, when donned, affords flame and smoke protection for the passenger.
