Wow, I can’t believe how dismissive most of the comments here are.

The idea of adding folding wings to existing seat dimensions could be a huge, huge improvement for sleeping on flights.

No, it’s not changing or solving anything else. Yes the model is tiny. No this isn’t solving existing recline issues if you’re 6’5”. If you have incredibly broad shoulders then you might not be able to use the wings but you can still leave them folded up and it’s the same as now.

But this is still an improvement. This is a site for hackers looking to improve things. This feels like a really clever seat hack to me.

Can we actually just appreciate that it could be an improvement, rather than just rail on airline seat sizes? This is making seats better not worse.
