1. An adjustable vehicle seat comprising:
a seat frame forming a seat back, where:
the seat frame is configured to couple with an aerospace vehicle, and
the seat back includes a crew reference point that defines a datum from which an eye position of a seat occupant is established to locate the eye position in a predetermined spatial relationship with instrumentation of the aerospace vehicle; and
a seat pan coupled to the seat frame, where the seat pan is coupled to the seat frame in one of a plurality of positions relative to the crew reference point so that the eye position of the seat occupant is in the predetermined spatial relationship with the instrumentation as established by the datum so as to decouple the eye position of the seat occupant from a size of the seat occupant.
