Most aircraft seats break forward like that. It allows easier exit in the event of a crash and reduces injuries to the passengers during rapid deceleration.

I don’t know.. What other good idea would make you fold them up like that..,,

[updated:LAST EDITED ON 10-11-02 AT 04:18 AM (GMT)]why do the seats fold down like that?.. I would thinks it’s more crash related.. they should have put airbags instaed of air vents on those seats

RE: Pic Of The Day-Yep, thats Russian!

Here’s what the photographer says about it: “Interior shot of a KrasAir Tu-204-100 named “Vasiliy Surikov.” Notice how the seats fold forward to provide added room if nobody is sitting in front of you”.

How can that give more room? It can obviously settle the minds of anybody suffering from chlostophobia (sorry about the spelling) as there is more room to see up front, but I can’t see how it offers leg room as the bottom of the seat is still there, therefore still crushing the legs of the passengers!! And you can hardly put your feet up can you?

Maybe the flight was quite empty…and somebody had a good mind to stretch his legs!:9

Thanks T5.Why have the pushed the chair down infront,more legroom?

RE: Pic Of The Day-Yep, thats Russian!

That’s rather crafty having the air vents, etc in the back of the seat.

Here’s the Tupolev 204 (Kras Air) from the inside and the same aircraft from the outside.

Probably the only Russian aircraft I like.

However ugly i think the 134 looks from the outside i wouldn’t mind that one!! – any extreior shots of the plane Kab – would make a change to the usual Aeroflot Cheatlines!

RE: Pic Of The Day-Yep, thats Russian!

Nice pic. Very posh inside. Like the colours and the design layout! 🙂 Wouldn’t you just love to have your own private aircraft?
