No - it was only "Crab-Air" that used this config - I remember walking to the flight deck of the VC-10s through the empty aircraft before the pax boarded, that the seats were strictly "civvie config" on BOAC.

Now the Dart Herald, DID have @ss-facing seats - I think they were in row 1, where the occupants of the first 2 rows had a table between them - bit like British Rail - so they could have a meeting whilst flying - if they could hear themselves above the prop noise


(The VC-10 was in the days when I was paid to go jump-seating as a fligh sim engineer)
