Questions - If, as a result of this case, all charter carriers agreed today that an increase in seat pitch was required.... .<ul type="square">1. How long would this take to physically fit and feed through to the point of sale?. .2. If certain a/c types become uneconomic (757-200?) at increased pitch, how quickly could carriers re-equip?. .3. During a transitional period, would all passengers have a theoretical right to sue, pending the completion of the reconfig?. .4. Final question, and this must be the biggie - what is acceptable seat pitch - 30", 32" or 34" plus. A previous post mentions a pax of 6'7" -what seat pitch is appropriate, and if the seat pitch was increased to say 36", would not the carrier still be vulnerable to a lawsuit from a discomforted pax?. .[/list]
