Who are are the main manufacturers of airliner seats ?

Do Boeing / Airbus and other airliner manufacturers design and make their
own or are they supplied under contract by companies that specialise in the
manufacture of seats ?

How much standardization is their in seats ... i.e. are they interchangable
between aircraft types or does each aircraft type have a special seat design
?


Most seats, like a lot of components, are farmed out to specific
vendors. I doubt that Airbus seats would slip right into a Boeing,
although the would, if you installed the proper mounting rails.
