This week I have learned more about the interior part of the aircraft which is the cabin layout in most aircraft . Seats are frequently equipped with further amenities. Airline seats may be equipped with a reclining mechanism for increased passenger comfort, either reclining mechanically or electrically (usually in long-haul first class and business class). Most aircraft also feature trays for eating and reading, either in the seatback which folds down to form a small table in most economy class seats, or inside the armrest which folds out in most first class, business class, bulkhead, and exit row seats. Most airline seats also feature a pocket which may contain an in-flight magazine for some readings and safety instructions.
There are some minimum seat pitch for the cabin layout stated by CAP747 :
Minimum distance between the seat cushion and any other seat back or fixed structure is 26 inches
The distance passenger’s leg has to move from thigh support to seat back is 7 inches
The vertical separation between seats must not reduce than 3 inches .
Aisle width will be dependent on seat numbers.
Maximum numbers of seat abreast in a single aisle is three
I also learned some of the in-flight entertainment sytem which divided into four types :
Analogue system
Split analogue digital system
Digital systems – real time
Digital systems – on demand
But nowadays some of the airlines provide a live telecast show onboard
