That is old for 2009. I flew AA 767-300 South America to New York in 2002 in J and was given a DVD player with a binder full of DVDs to choose from.

Good eye. It didn't sit right for me as well - AA had the CRTs in the aisle with the initial delivery of the 738s, which were then replaced with the small LCD dropdowns in the overhead. The 752s went from CRT to LCD overheads in the aisle. I do not recall any LCD screens in the aisle on 737s.

I think OP is talking about the onboard screen a generation before that. Before drop down small flat screen on under the overhead bins, 738 and 752 had cathode tube TV like (do you remember those?) screen mounted on the celling in the aisle. The celling at the front area was low so that screen in the front of the first row of first class was drop down mounted in the celling. FAs had to manually pull down the TV for safety demonstration and in flight Entertainement. I remember that those screens had to be stowed during takeoff and landing, when going to the lav during the flight, I had to clear my head a little to avoid my head slamming into the screen.

I always thought they should have kept them even for just the safety video but AA took a different turn when it came to entertainment (which I don't hate BTW, those DL screens and huge under seat boxes are the worst and usually don't work to begin with).

So, the majority of the time that you have flown Delta, the monitors haven't worked? Not my experience at all.

Oh my yes, early 2000's when the planes were new. I thought that was amazing verses the old CRT, bump your head in the aisle screens on the 757's . I watched Hairspray from MIA to MSP.
