Jump to postWell with a triple bunk bed layout it seems like it would be tough to have those beds all convert into seats. It would, however, be a good idea if people wanted to lie down for the entire flight.
Jump to postThey are only in business and first products because they are designed for use with flat or nearly flat beds. In an economy seat there is the seat in front of you to restrain you (not soft, I know). In a herringbone or suite layout, there is nothing to stop you from flopping around, regardless of th...

Jump to postRemember the cowlings have to be one solid color for the laminar flow to be optimized. Unfortunately, this means no stripes, so the 80s 90s livery would look different with the engines solid white with no stripes.
