Re Jstflyin, the Russians were quite good at it. Have a look at the IL 18 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ilyushin_Il-18 of 50 years ago. The oxygen mask argument which I have heard or seen before is a bit flat-earth, imo. I like Keejse’s design proposals, but I also like my comfort, and so do most people. Comfort costs money but is appealing to the customer and therefore good for business. The more that can be demonstrated the more likely someone will look seriously at such designs. Is it impossible to incorporate the comfort factor and keep down operating costs? Maybe. But on a much smaller scale Saab appear to be making a good job of it.
