VEHICLE ASSEMBLY COMPRISING A CHAIR FOR LANDING AND TAKE-OFF

The present invention relates to a chair (1) for use by a user of personal flying equipment such as a flight suit. A chair (1) for use in take-off or landing of a user wearing personal flying equipment comprises a seat (10) for the user to straddle such that the user faces in a forward direction and a torso support (20) for supporting a torso of the user sitting on the seat. The torso support (20) is concave and thereby defines an opening facing the seat (10). The chair further comprises a structure (30) to which the seat (10) and torso support (20) are mounted, and a base member (40) rigidly connected to the structure and extending outwardly therefrom. The torso support (20) extends outwardly to either side of the structure (30) leaving a space below for receiving a leg of the user sat on the seat (10).
