I did a search on the FAA aircraft registry for "model = RV-10" and looked at the number of seats. Most were listed as 4, four were listed as 5 (which I know has been discussed here), but I was surprised to see that there were nine listed with 2 seats. What's the reason for doing this? Lower liability premiums? I suppose it could also just be bad data--I did notice one has 10 seats and three are "light sport".

I got mine certified with four seats (You have to install seat belts and rear seat backs in four position) but installed no rear seat cushions. Reason - to keep my plane light. The rear belts and cushions weigh a lot. I have removed the left (pilot side) rear seat back and belt assembly. I have left installed the back right seat back and belts assembly but still no cushion. I figure that if I need to carry a third person - they can sit on pillows. My current empty weight 1617# with the tow bar which I always carry. I figure it is mandatory equipment - try moving the plane without it.....
