Well what about the midgets (and small children) that occupy the emergency exit seats while those of use over 6' have to make do with our feat trapped under the seat in front.
I'm 6'5" and I've only once sat in an emergency exit seat (Ta very much Emirates).
Who takes these seats, even if you phone before hand to book them there always taken!!
Even worse are the check in staff that don't know about the aircraft and put you in the centre aisle of the Emergency exit row that is *right* infront of the toilet block with *less* leg-room ***and*** people think it's alright to walk on you to get to the other side of the a/c, then the toilet leaks everywhere! (Mentioning no names, but I was flying to Islamabad on a non British carrier!!)
I'm not bitter!
If the seats didn't recline a bit then I really wouldn't be able to sit in them!
