Rudi, 50% open or closed can be a major improvement.
And we wonder why FA's are stressed out and service declined or added attitude! If they had to fly more often, I am sure the Disability time off would be much higher for them.

What i meant to say was, if the shade is up and the person is napping (which is often), I would reach over the lower it.

But here was another true life experience. Notice that there are windows BETWEEN the seats that can have low sun shining in. The person infront of you has the seat back and sleeping. The movie was on, so I reached up and closed the shade.

Have this topic been massaged sufficently to move on to something else?
