GALLERY

The seats in a Diamond are unique and styled very different to other aircraft of its type. The seats of the Diamond aircraft are ostensibly the bulk of the interior. The seat bottoms are incorporated into the cabin, the seats have prominent side bolsters and are sunk into the frame with the fronts built up like a racing seat. The seating shell is built into the cabin structure, the seats themselves are sunk in and a centre console is incorporated. The front seats are two separate bottoms and backrests. The rear seats are made up of a left and a right with the joint bottom.

The dominant colour of this seat design is the vibrant Red (ADI-3011) leather. This is broken up with the inserts that are made from a white (ADI-1021) leather that has been perforated (SP-1). The centre insert has been quilted with SA005 ‘Double Diamond’ in red stitching. The seats are outlined with white piping which surrounds the seat outlines and around the inserts. The headrests are built into the seat back and in the centre of the headrest the Diamond logo is embossed into the leather. The front seats have the controls incorporated into the seat, with the control boots made of matching red leather.
