Comment Lament the DC10 (Score 1) 112
While many plane enthusiasts lamented the exit of the DC-10 from passenger service, I did not.
That aircraft had an awful, awful 2-5-2 seat arrangement in economy. More often than not I ended up in the middle seat of that set of 5 and had to crawl over 2 people if I wanted to use the toilet in the middle of the night, and didn't get the compensation of a view out the window which at least makes up for it in aircraft with the 3-4-3 configuration). Inevitably, it would be a parent and a very noisy child occupying BOTH sides.
Good riddance, DC-10. You won't be missed.
