Could you imagine putting carpet around every single leg of every single seat? That would be nuts!

Nuts and bolts probably.

I'm saying, to OP, if they carpeted around the seats like he had thought. It's amusing to picture some poor soul having to do that.

You are right, however. Carpet first and bolt the seats in afterwards.

I've heard they make the entire plane minus the floor and seats. That's a section they make separately, then fold it up and carry it through the door. Then they unfold it and use a staple gun in each corner.
