I think we need more discussion about reclining your seat in coach. The physics of the guy not being able to use his laptop intrigue me. He stated that, even if he reclines too, the distance doesn't change as far as his reach to the keyboard. I'm gonna need a diagram. There's an etiquette to reclining your seat. The big, pompous bastard that instantly, and forcefully, reclines his seat the instant the light goes off...is one of my pet peeves. He has dominance issues.

I rear this thread is already tenuous. Using "rear" as a verb is making me very uncomfortable.

The issue is that the tray table is mounted to the bottom of the seat, rather than the reclining portion, so when the person in front of you reclines, your tray table doesn't move, but their seat moves into the space previously occupied by your laptop. On most planes, the angle formed between a reclined seat and the tray table is such that you cannot open a laptop wide enough to use.

Talk to people on a plane? I'm not a psychopath. I talk to myself. Helps to keep people away. Though there's a flip side. Takes a real [censored] weirdo to talk to the guy that talks to himself. Thus proving SherpaPhil's point about psychopaths.
