scat airlines

one benefit to flying in an aging jet left over from the soviet union, is that it was built before they started cramming so many seats in the plane. the cabin was falling apart, the seatbelts didn't work, and some of the overhead compartments didn't close but it had the roomiest seats of any economy class flight i have been on in decades.

sure, the airline may be banned from landing the EU (pdf), but i could comfortably cross my legs!
