so i happened across this page, http://www.airbus.com/innovation/fut...concept-cabin/
and i couldn't help but wonder what a crock of crap the whole concept is. manufacturers and airlines have been continually doing just the opposite--cramming in as many people into as small a space as physically possible. there has been no effort to make aircraft truly comfortable. and yeah, i know about the 787 with bigger windows and supposedly more humid air, but the seats are still only 17.3"--17.5" wide with a 31"--32" pitch and don't recline a hell of lot.
so, i'm pretty convinced that the wave of the future is a more economical sardine can. just wondering why companies like airbus spend any money at all on stupid, unrealistic videos, webpages etc depicting the future as some magical comfortable place...
