Well with all due respect (I do genuinely value your contributions) I think what your disclaimer really is trying to say is ‘I’m posting inside information but BA doesn’t condone me posting inside information’. In which case I’d suggest probably best to leave out the disclaimer altogether

@13900 many thanks for your many informative and valued contributions to FlyerTalk. It's because of people like you who are willing to share snippets of information that makes FlyerTalk thrive. Never feel the need to justify yourself, just know that the vast majority of readers genuinely appreciate your contributions. We realise you (and all the other active BA employees) are unable to share everything you know about the inside workings of BA but what you are able to share we find very interesting and informative and we truly appreciate you taking the time and effort to share.
Thank you ^
Thank you ^

Probably a slight decrease. Comparing the Delta 777 layout to BA, DL get 28 seats between doors 1 and 2, BA currently have 32 J in the same space. Of course galleys, toilets etc differ so BA might be able to get more seats in that space by moving things around.

I'm not an expert, but even with my little understanding of all things legal I know that, should BA decide to unleash the lawyers on me, my little disclaimer would be as useful as a used condom in an avalanche. What it's meant to be saying is that my posts reflect my opinion, my understanding of facts and my knowledge only. Nobody can take them and go to, say, Cruz and claim that one of my posts is BA's gospel. Suppose I said BA's going for the Solstys seat, and suppose that a newspaper picks up my post. Then it turns out to be something else. That newspaper can't go to Cruz and moan that "user 13900 said it was the Solstys and now you BA made us all look bad" and demand compensation or whatever.
Funniest analogy of the year there for me!

You’ve now also sent my mind wandering about the average number of used condoms on a montainside.

13900,
I once had a girlfriend who fancied me using a condom in an avalanche.
Although she had an amazing figure, I avoided ski-ing with her.

Not sure if it’s news, but apparently the new CW seat will have doors. Super diamond with bells indeed.
