agree with twinjock about the the lifestyle , but its also being compromised by not being able to as active as previously.
We,ll see what physio /pillows/exercise / bed rest etc reveals ( Mr boeing are you listening to this !)
Thanks for all the inputs.
ps
I do prefer Vref30+80 to Greendot , even with such discomfort.

I have to agree that the 777 seat is a bit of a punish. When I queried why it is so damned hard when I first went on to it, I was told it is the first cockpit seat built to new 16G specs.
I find the 16G comment believable - it would take 16Gs to make an impression on the bloody thing.
I have discovered through trial and error that the comments others have made before me do help somewhat - high setting of back rest and elevate the thigh support so as to take a bit of the weight off the long-suffering butt bones.

Maybe he thinks "four golds" is an indication of too tight a grip??
Actually my original post, which may get deleted soon as well, was the response to a post by someone with an inappropriate user name. That person's post has now been deleted. In fact, that person's entire identity has been deleted. Confusing enough?
Anyway, I tend to agree with you that lowering the thigh supports is more comfortable.
