Well said vfrpilotpb.

Recent surveys have shown that the average size of your average Brit has risen by at least one and a half sizes in the last ten years. I think airlines should consider facts like these when arranging their seat pitches.

Recently I travelled to Paphos on a MON A300-600. I must stress I'm only 5'7" and of average proportions but I felt really cramped in the seat I was allocated (both ways!).

Perhaps schedule airlines who operate to IT destinations pitch their seats differently to charter airlines. Can anyone comment on this?
