Seat ID help, please

The Historic Aircraft Association has fielded a request to identify a seat, mooted to be a Meteor (!) or , of course, a Spitfire…..

Armrests suggest transport rather than fighter, Varsity, Shackleton perhaps.

Any ideas, seat gurus ?

The basic phenolic resin seats were common to many, many types. The Spitfire version, is, typically different to them all, but looks awfully similar!

Going from memory hear but resonably confident it is from a Sea Prince.
