For those who claimed 18" wide Y seats on the 737 were impossible, we now have an example of 17.8" wide Y seats - almost 3/4" wider than a UA seat.
Isn't this just a measuring trick? Actual seat width on the 737 is constrained by aircraft width. If it was an Airbus, I'd believe the seat was actually wider.
