Tray issues aside for the ... more ample people on the flight, i'm 6'4", and find that my legs are just a smidge longer than 30in which is annoying - especially when the woman in front with head phones on reclines her seat and forces my kneecaps to end up somewhere mid thigh... but i digress."

These seats seem to be dependant on your legs being at an angle – the lady in the flowery shirt can’t be that tall – so if I sat there with my longer legs… wouldn’t my seat have to be higher?8 V% m8 \: F" }8 e" z j" f, g
