Narrative:
Taxiing to hold short line to take off runway 33 detroit city airport. As I approached the hold short line I applied brakes to stop. My seat slipped back and my feet came off the brakes. It took several seconds to get my feet back on the brakes; but I traveled about 60 to 80 feet beyond the hold short line. There was no other landing or departing traffic.
