I well remember TWA’s setup and the stethoscopes. When I finally got to fly in F (or “Royal Ambassador”) it looked like proper headsets were issued. Alas they were just bigger versions of the same plastic tubing but sat over your ear and were only marginally more comfortable.

Nobody has mentioned the appalling GMIS setup with microscreens in F until BA gave up and handed out iPads instead. I rather liked the BA Personal tape player setup in F which at the time seemed pretty space age!
