    If they did that they would have come down strapped to the floor with cargo netting. There were options but they were real bad.

      Eh, it certainly wouldn’t be as comfortable as the seats, but I wouldn’t say it was “real bad”.

      I think the bigger problem was that they didn’t have enough suits for everyone, so if there was a depressurization event, that would be real bad.
