See this website for lots of photos on the new Virgin herringbone style seat.

One word: This is a step down from the current design at AC. Hopefully AC goes with the CX Biz seat for the 787 and new 77Ws.

One photo in the above website has BRA/R (Richard Branson in SMI/J style) in fully reclined seat. Branson's a lot skinnier than me and he looks a little cramped in the photo.


Also the center section is a lot more compact than window seats for the new Virgin Biz seats. Big from me.

Edit to Add: Only way for VS to make the J cabin seem roomy was to remove center section overhead lockers and reduce the size of the side lockers, see this pic:
