Indeed, as are EC's transatlantic all-Biz birds and (I know Bob'll hate me) UA's P.S. planes.

And it wasn't that long ago that all manner of airplanes had movies on screens that didn't even drop down from the ceiling but were shown on CRT TVs mounted above the aisle (and in the case of widebodies, also shown on projector screens on the bulkhead with dim CRT [three-lens RGB] projectors). Yes, this included 737s, 767s, and even 777s. I remember when I first flew on an Airbus A320 in 1994 and thought the flip-down LCD screens were the total wave of the future...
