True - have seen quite a few pilots and stews pushin' maximum density.I thought it was because us Americans get fatter by the day.
I just saw a thing in the NY Times or Washington Post (don't remember which) that in 2010 Delta is gonna begin installing new coach seats.

It will be interesting to see if others follow suit because these look pretty innovative.
Not trying to flame here, but here is a passengers view on a flight from ATL....
"It's a lot better than Delta," my husband quipped as we boarded the bus that was to drive us down a rural highway to Uruguay's capital, Montevideo.http://www.minnpost.com/sharonschmi...iscomfort_after_flying_delta_i_miss_northwest
What about the **twinkle** effect they give the bonehead butt pony in the life vest?The safety video with the chick that went a little too overboard on the collagen lip injections has got to go (btw, when your bottom lip is sagging hard, you got too much lip injection). It's so tacky it's embarrassing. I can only imagine what international business travelers are thinking when that sophomoric video comes on. Did she actually give me the finger-wag? Give me a break. Great way to alienate the female clients. This isn't Skybus. It's Delta Airlines.
But hey, that's just my opinion. And just like a**holes, everyone's got one.
