The last commercial airliner I enjoyed riding in was the Boeing 707. Two leather bucket seats per side with plenty of leg room. Ashtray in the center arm rest. Good ventilation for the non-smokers. Needless to say I don’t fly much at all anymore.
“Good ventilation for the non-smokers.”
Obviously you weren’t one of the nonsmokers on those planes. The nonsmoking section was as effective as the non-chlorine section of your swimming pool.
