I wonder if the person who wrote the letter has any idea that they have become somewhat of a cult hero on FT and A.net.

My only problem with this video is that there is NO 29E next to the lav on any CO jet. There is 29D on the 738's that is next to the lav.

The only "E" seat next to the lav with no "D" seat is on the 739's; but it's 32E and like his suggestion there is no seat next to the lav....

It's a bunch of BS

Yes -- that was pointed out when the letter originally came to light. It still makes a funny video, though!
