prevent injury-no heavy bags in the overhead?
I have read about and seen people get hit by heavy bags from the overhead bins. Some airlines (US for example, although I don't mean to pick on US specifically) asks that larger bags be put in the overhead and smaller ones under the seat. Shouldn't this be reversed? As recently as 1984, I flew aboard a plane that had only a coat rack (overhead with no doors), but that's a topic for nostalgia.
