Maybe it was different in the early 1960's...when mainline carriers actually used 707's.

I was on TWA 707 back in 92 or 93, I think. I distinctly remember it as a 707 -- had the little vortex generators on the wings and I seem to remember see a 1959 date stamped into the window. I definitely don't remember middle seats being wider than aisle or window.
