It could be interesting. I'm not completely opposed to the concept, I'd like to see it first before really giving it a thumbs up or down. There is an extra row of seats but perhaps being slightly ahead of the adjacent seat you gain a sense of privacy as compensation (Think excessively large person sitting next to you). So there may be some gains and losses overall. Humm… thanks for this. It could be interesting.

What different effects will the sweeping forward or backward of the rows have? I guess gone are the days that one could sprawling across a few seats on an empty plane. (well a lot of the new seats not as good as the old 80's & 70's for doing this any way) I wonder how this will effect boarding.

Advantages: a) obese people will not overflow into the seat you use, b) the armrest can be designed to "extend" towards you, so that EVERYONE will have the use of two armrests c) rather than increasing seats in the aircrafts, they can consider increasing the seat pitch!! hehehe Fantastic I think this is a nice design.
