You do have a direct line of sight to WTP passengers facing forward from that seat until the curtain goes across. You can smell when WTP have their meal served. But I was happy enough with it as a seat, and would sit there again, if I could not get the 3 aisle direct seats in forward cabin (53A, 53E or 53K). XLEB has turned into a special topic on the BA Yammer site, no doubt aided and abetted by PETER01's tale of woe!
