Name That Seat! Thread - Guidelines

The aim of the game is to guess the seat number and aircraft type from a quirky/fun photo of (or from) a seat on a BA-operated flight in the current fleet.* There ought to be at least one clue of some sort in the photo, so we don't - for example - run the risk of endless Economy seat guesses.

There are only three rules to follow:

1) Photo posters: remember to keep it to one 'live' photo at a time (i.e. check that the last photo posted has been guessed correctly before posting another).
2) Guessers: you must guess a seat number and aircraft type.

3) Guessers: in the event of a wrong guess, please wait a minimum of 10 minutes before guessing again (i.e. let someone else have a chance at guessing before you do so again).

Good luck!

* Depending on how popular the thread is, we might - in the future - open it up to seats on aircraft types retired from the current BA fleet.

I have quite a few times (although not for a while admittedly!) but camera zoom can do funny things with these photos. We've had all sorts of mix ups already in this thread.

Last guess then from me:- Qantas A380 - 4A - seems like lower deck in any case.

@S_W_S - I think there are only three choices here. My first vote is 3E on a 787-8

Well that was short lived! Sorry @PETER01 - not quite. @Deltus has it Exactly spot on which makes it the 777-200ER (12F/48J....)

Take it away @PETER01

Wouldn't it be 15K rather than 15A?

Err... I don't think I was leaning over. But yes, A319 seat 1A!

No it's definitely 15A (rear facing).
