Just read that Boeing are now being sued for being responsible for making an aeroplane that is selectively safe, i.e. the Business / Premium Class passengers had shoulder harnesses and relatively few injuries, if any, whereas most of the injuries were amongst Economy Class passengers who were only provided with a lap strap.

If you can afford a Business Class seat you are safer, is the claim, and it's all Boeings fault.

Never heard of shoulder harnesses for pax, maybe it was an Asiana requirement, and nothing to do with Boeing, who only provided what they were asked for ?

Any clues ?
