That is some food for thought - have just changed to 38C. I also found a couple of YouTube clips that showed the footrest at 60 degrees - here’s what looks to be some old promotional material


this one as well shows the leg rest in action at 60 degrees (albeit per-787 era)

My other thought is that there’s a chance the pax in 38A/B are also going for an upgrade, and if this is successful then I’d have the row to myself (though again, not going to count my chickens on a V1 787!)

I’ll keep this thread posted based on my experience in 38C
