Sporty’s Introduces Heated Seat Pad

By General Aviation News Staff · November 13, 2026 · Leave a Comment

Sporty’s has introduced the Flight Gear Heated Seat Pad to provide pilots with supplementary cockpit warmth during cold-weather operations.

According to company officials, the portable cushion offers an extra heat source for aircraft with insufficient cabin heating without occupying excess space. Powered by a standard USB-A connection plugged into a portable battery pack, the pad features three adjustable temperature settings indicated by colored LED lights: High (red), medium (blue), and low (green).

The cushion includes a built-in 7.25-inch by 4.5-inch storage pouch to secure a battery pack during use, as well as a slip-resistant bottom to help keep the cushion anchored to the seat. When open, the seat pad measures 17 inches by 15 inches by 0.5 inches, folding down to 15.5 inches by 5.25 inches by 2 inches for storage in a flight bag or underneath an aircraft seat.

Price: $34.95.
