There's a very interesting article in Sunday's NYT entitled, "The Race to Build a Better Business Class." It focuses on the challenges of seat design. See Business Class Article.

That was interesting I cannot believe the cost of the seats particularly in first class. I hate those angle flat seats glad they are going to be gone eventually. I know I am critical of seats at times and this article made me realise how much goes into their design. The new BA First Class seat I do not like I prefer the old ones. Ken likes it. Every person has a different body shape and therefore what is great for one person may not be for another. Quite a challenge to try and please all the people all the time, never easy in any endeavour.
