Yeah, that 747 was something else. I had the best and the worst seats in Tourist class on a trip to Germany -- back in those days you got your seat assignment at checkin, and I had lots of time in Chicago on the way over. Got a nice seat in the emergency exit row over the wing, a row of seats is removed for that. Infinite foot room.
On the way back, my sister screwed around and I got to the Frankfort airport pretty late for an international flight, so got stuck in the last row, window seat. The fuselage taper intrudes on the floor space there, so I had a little triangle for my feet maybe 16x14x6". Horrible flight, left at 1:30 pm local time and arrived at 3:30 pm local time, passenger next to me chain smoked the whole trip. Great plane though, pilots loved them. _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
