Strangely, I was on a plane that had this configuration in the late 80's during a peak travel holiday. They must have dragged this airship out of mothballs to cover the holiday load.
I had a similar experience around 1987, but it wasn't a mothball situation. I was flying El Al, on a 707 (the last time I can remember being on one of those aircraft). They had the open storage racks on that plane. I remember, even then, thinking that it was odd.
