Zodiac Aerospace has launched a new, fully-flat business class seat (the 7812) that is, well, fully flat! Not just lie-flat! And VERY comfortable. I took a test ride at the Dubai air show.

Pffft... Just shy of 6 feet? Really? We all know you're at least 9.5 feet tall Kirby... freak.

Indeed... you'll need that fighting spirit for your cage match against Sienna Miller, assuming you haven't chickened out that is...

How many inches were there to spare? (Some of us are more than 6 feet tall :-)
Your head looked to have about 3 inches before hitting the seat back. I'd also hope there are no vent holes between the feet and head areas!

I definitely had room to spare on both ends. I didn't see any vent holes, but I see what you're getting at! ewwww :)

I had to LOL at the person pushing a shopping cart past at the end. A shopping cart?
(oh, BTW, there appears to be more than one Dave here now. I'm the Dave that has the hots for Mary. Wait, somehow, I doubt I'm the only one there, either).
Any idea or data about how much pitch this would save? Or, is it about the same pitch as the lie-flat seats, but offers the fully-flat in the same pitch?

Be gone charlatan! There can be only one true Dave... you sir are no Dave.
