Sorry, what I was trying to say is that FAA requires car seats to be installed according to a manufacturer's instructions, and with the Scenera, as with most convertibles, the installation process and RF/FF requirements on planes is the same as it is in cars. You use the same belt paths, follow the same weight/size limits, recline requirements for FF and RF, etc. The only real difference is that there's no FF tether option, and there's no shoulder strap feeding through the belt path like one has in cars.
