Title text: Now that airlines have started adding wheel locks to their drink carts, less than half of flights have one accidentally fall out through the hole.

Not gonna lie, I'd actually want to try the tail gunner seat.

People would still probably prefer the pedaling seat to the safety exit row.

I'd take a wing seat over an extra middle seat

I wonder if it'd be possible to have seating inside the wing of a plane. Assuming the ceiling's high enough, that would be kind of neat, especially if they had front-facing windows.

I think there was some proposed flying wing airliner design that would've done that (since by definition there's no fuselage), but it never took off.

We all see what you did there.

Regardless... I would like one of the Tail Gunner seats, or maybe go with one in the fighter escort seats, depending if the Fighter Escort takes off and lands at a different airport as the "real" airliner.
