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 thought I’d revive this thread by posting a recent picture of fellow FTer @Fontana (with his permission of course).

Name that seat!

(The picture has been edited to protect Fontana’s identity, but the smile is 100% genuine! )

Nah, we can all tell that's actually Alex Cruz trying on a darker range of high-visibility jackets.

My attempt at humour clearly drove everyone away, @phenombr.

But I will try seat 16A on a Boeing 777-300ER please.

I really cannot believe you posted this picture, do you not care about your child’s safety?

Which is why I said "at the risk of getting flamed".
Ok to answer your question, I did not do it again since being told off, as I do care. My risk assessment at that time was this was no more dangerous than just letting her sleep across my lap if unexpected turbulence hits, as I believe most parents, myself included, will not keep the extension seatbelt on for the full 12 hour flight but just put it on if the seat belt sign was turned on for expected turbulence, I will secure her just like I would if she is in a bassinet. I know about the "no seat belt in that position" reason, but I believe the seat belts of a bassinet will not do much in a turbulence either, which is why the infant has to be removed when the seat belt sign is on.

I forgot to add, this was taken just after meals service, we had to put her somewhere to use our tray table, where do you suggest? Under the seat in front of us? Overhead locker? Not eat for a 12 hour flight?
