Seatbelt Broken: Legal to Fly?
An airplane has its right front seat belt broken. Is it legal to fly,
assuming nobody is sitting in the right front seat? I say no, others say yes. The reason I say no is that 14 CFR 91.213 (d)(2)(i) says that it is only legal to fly with inoperative equipment if the that equipment is not part of the VFR day type certification. I believe that seatbelts ARE required for type certification by Part 23 (or its CAA predecessor). Others say it is ok to defer to the next regularly scheduled inspection, as long as nobody sits in the seat with the broken seatbelt. Who's right?
