You think FIND is bad, at least it's not your seat

Koito Industries, the company who brought us FIND to the R160 is better known in Japan as a manufacturer of passenger seats for airplanes and trains (including Shinkansen).

Today they admitted that they've been altering safety test results for airplane seats since the mid-nineties, after an insider alerted the transport ministry. It makes you wonder if they haven't been doing the same for train seats...

Yes ... but the cupholders are safe. Unless the train is in motion. :)

I found out that their largest client for seats in the US is that airline based in Houston and whose East Coast hub is EWR.
