An improved seating apparatus for an aircraft includes a seat assembly and a quick install track fitting assembly for securing the seat assembly to the aircraft. In a preferred embodiment, the quick install track fitting assembly is made up of a track fitting body for insertion into an aircraft seat track and a manual lever that is pivotably attached to the track fitting body. The manual lever has a lever release position and a lever lock position. A force bearing plunger is movably attached to the manual lever for transferring force to the aircraft seat track. The force bearing plunger has a track release position and a track lock position, wherein both positions correspond to the lever release and lever lock positions of the manual lever. A lock may also be provided for maintaining the plunger in the track lock position when the manual lever is in the lever lock position. The quick install aircraft track fitting may further include a spring loaded secondary plunger to help locate and provide a secondary lock for securing the seat assembly into a proper position within the aircraft seat track. Moreover, the quick install track fitting may further include an anti-rattle feature that urges the force bearing plunger against the top of the seat track.
