Funny related story, we had a KC10 crew in my unit who were on a V.I.P. flight. Upon rotation, the seats behind the center poker table detached and fell backward. It was a good thing the V.I.P. and his wife had their seatbelts securely fastened -- unfortunately they were not amused. They tried to crucify the crew for being at fault (how were they supposed to know this was going to happen?). Shortly thereafter, all V.I.P. flights had to have a mission commander in the rank of Major or Above.
