I am flying for the first time with my manual, rigid chair and I need some advice from the experts on this board. 
My chair has a fold down back. My question is should I fold it down and secure it down so it can't be lifted, or should I leave it up in the normal position?
I am going to remove the armrests and cushion and the anti tips, but just not sure how to handle the back. What do you recommend?
If I secure it in the down position I plan to use velcro straps to help make sure it isn't lifted improperly.
Thanks for the help in advance!
