Chair of the Day: New Airplane Seat?
I’m headed to Florida for the rest of the week in order to help my mother get resettled back in Florida after the recent death of my father. I would love to think that I would have time to write, but I must face reality. I won’t. So, I will leave you for the week with a laugh.
Think of me flying south seated in this demented version of an airline seat. I’d give you my own review, but truthfully, Gizmodo couldn’t have said it better…
…we find our heroes cramped in their seats even more thanks to this extremely awkward “Freedom” concept. The so-called freedom concept would allow planes to add another row of seats thanks to reversed seating arrangements. The reversed seats would reduce needed width by overlapping shoulders. The only way I would consider something like this is if the price of the ticket were, say, half of what it would normally go for with regular seating. I can’t wait for the day that airplanes eliminate seating altogether and just do standing room, you know, like the subway.
I’ll see you back here on Monday. Keep those design dilemmas coming!
