How about a cross country flight having to look at another person's mug for 6 hours. The only advantage to being a short male is on the occasional times I fly I do not feel squished.

The problem with this seating arrangement is that people will not be able to leave the plane quickly.

I believe there’s a time spec that aircraft manufacturers need to meet and I can’t see this meeting it.

Yeah, but what if they're good looking women in short skirts?

Just think of the logistics of the person at the window having to get out in an "emergency"?

Passenger M: I hope you can’t smell my feet.
Passenger L: Unfortunately ...

Passenger M: I hope last weeks deodorant is still working.
Passenger R: Unfortunately ...

whatever it takes to never, ever fly again..

The airline monopoly - who without a doubt have bought and paid for every politician - would never ever allow this to come to pass.

.... unless they stood to profit handsomely from the alternatives the flying public would choose.

Popular Mechanics? LOL

They had Flying Cars on the Cover when I was a Kid.
Haven’t see a one in real Life during my Commute.

““The fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars, but in ourselves.”

Once upon a time airlines were spacious, friendly, and on time. And then the traveling public decided it was price, price, price. Airline aircraft wouldn't look like this if they were empty.

And that is the reason that even though I am on airlines very frequently, you will NEVER see me on one when I am not being paid to be there.

Haven’t been on a plane in 7 years and don’t plan on being on one ever again.

How do they deal with Manspreading?

And really, looking at the picture, how do you get up to go to the restroom?

I travel regularly...leisure travel..always in coach.The last few flights I've taken have been 14 hours...9 hours...and similar distances.On orders of my doctor I never sit for more than an hour or two at a time on an airplane.I spend lots of time on my feet even during the longest flights.So cattle car class doesn't bother me that much.

I flew cross-country in a C-130 with a similar seating arrangement. We didn't have nearly that much legroom though.
