This would also deal with seats that are misaligned with the ones in front (even if their frames connect to the same floor harness).

Are measurements being actively taken on flights? If so would it be possible for some sort of community document where we can see which measurements have been taken so that we can crowd source more, a Google Sheet would work well for that.
Secondly, if people are actively taking measurements, are they using an actual measuring tape or something like the measurement app on an iPhone. If using the iPhone measurements, I suppose that on the document there should be a note as to whether it was an actual measurement or a "digital" measurement for potential accuracy fluctuations.

Well I was thinking it would be quickest if I take all the measurements but I've been a bit lackadaisical in this area recently. I do travel with a traditional tape measure, and though other people may get slightly different centimetres, if I did it all then it would at least be internally consistent throughout. I do have a few updates however, so I'll them in later today once my phone has charged up.

corporate-wage-slave sorry to ping you here, but I was wondering if you would be able to upload any updates that you might have to this thread.
A lack of flying must surely be getting to me if I want to start looking at seat measurements...

Yes, I think I have some updates. I will see if I can revise this thread tomorrow.

Resurrecting this thread with a fresh observation. Having recently flown on board the 787-10, the Club World Suite seemed to me to be ever so slightly narrower than the example fitted to the 777. I didn't have a tape measure on hand to check but I'd guess the 787-10 seat is about 2cm narrower. Can anyone confirm please
