If you select one of the cargo pod compartments, the seat will be moved to that position and the cargo pod will now have a badge annotation indicating how many seats are stored in that compartment.
If you tap on a seat position that currently does not have a seat installed, and that seat is in the cargo pod, FlightSpan™ will move the seat from the pod to the cabin.
You can also store seats in the pod by long tapping the pod location. Choose which seat or seats you want to move to that location.

If you tap on a seat position that currently does not have a seat installed, and that seat is in aft baggage, FlightSpan™ will move the seat from aft baggage to the cabin and add a standard weight passenger.
The Aft Seats list will pulse a larger bold twice when the change is made.
The aircraft configuration weight and CG include both installed and stowed seats.
Stretcher Configuration
Contact FlightSpan™ Support to initially configure an aircraft with a stretcher.
A quick configure button that includes a stretcher will be added.
If you select a quick link configuration that includes a stretcher, you will be asked to confirm the stretcher weight.
