Over four hour miserable trips are also found in some two aisle aircraft in the Economy class. It is the damn airlines the ones who shoehorn people worse than the proverbial sardines. There!

Single aisle and I wonder what the seat pitch. Anything over four hours is going to be one miserable trip. Same applies to all single aisle airplanes flying trans-Atlantic. No thank you!

I can’t wait to see how the 797 shapes up. I hope it is overpowered in a similar way to the 757 it will be replacing. Those rocket takeoffs and amazing short field perf. would be amazing. Two badass engines need to go on this bird also to commemorate the abilities of the RB211/PW2040 equipped 75s.

It’s sad that you choose to use the limited amount of internet time they give you in the mental institution to rant about Airbus. I guess you’re in there for a reason...
