We took an innovative step, ditching the standard aluminium seatback frame and redesigning it as a composite skeleton that is both as beautiful as it is efficient. The result is increased passenger comfort with both greater legroom and width – a world first 18” wide seat on the B737; lighter weight and increased durability;...
