believe or not, the Topic title is supposed to describe the subject of the thread so that readers can decide if they are interested in said thread.
thread titles such as: "Is this a silly idea?", "Europe", "Wow", "Tuesday", or "What do you think about this?", don't really help me much.
maybe you are clairvoyant, i'm not.

The United Airline First Suite on the 777-200 is 21.5" wide (21" on the 747-400) with 78" pitch and reclines 180 into a "true" bed.
American Airline's Flagship Suite on the 777 is 21" wide with 89" of pitch and reclines 180 into a "true" bed.
So UA and AA's First seats are superior in width (UA), pitch, recline, and style to CO's BusinessFirst seat.
BusinessFirst seating is is certainly no slouch. It has better recline than UAs and AAs Business Class seat, though AA has better pitch and UA's is within two inches of CO.

Does anyone have pictures of the 170 degree BF seat. I'm looking for a picture taken inside the plane, not the pic on the CO website.

CO's BF is 22" wide.
But does it matter? I just slept 8 hours without one wake up from NRT to IAH in BF...so I am a very big fan of CO's 777 seat at this moment.
