I can't really remember- mine was probably during the ASA (All do not hail Satan's commuter airline!) days. I did get to try out an E-145 a few years back when dabbling on United and nearly managed to give myself a concussion when I hit my head on the door of an open overhead bin. I don't think of myself as fussy but I do not like planes that do not allow me to stand fully upright in the aisle.

The tree (crepe myrtle) has been severely pruned by the landscaper and will not block anyone's view of the race from the gallery.

Only time I flew on them was when I was much younger and shorter but I remember the Beech 1900s having that hump too.

Hey kipper, any news on how Bacon's new mom is surviving him? If the adoption doesn't work, what happens to him? (I'm pretty sure you're not willing to become the human of last resort for him, plus I don't think Grace would appreciate sharing her happy forever home with him.)

In New Orleans a balcony is only attached to the building and is usually 3 to 3.5 feet deep, you can see one on another building in the first picture. A gallery has posts which support the structure along the part away from the building and is wider. Our gallery is about 29' x 8+'. There's a round table with 4 chairs at one end and 4 chairs with 2 side tables at the other end. The center is standing room (practice for Ryan Air in the future). Our entire group can be outside at the same time. We can also accommodate you and Mrs767 at the opposite ends to give you 1-12-1 seating.
(2) my comment was about the seating arrangements at the restaurant, on whatever structural element/s they may have, rather than your probably-more-variable gallery accommodations

(1) thank you again for reminding us of the importance of accurate architectural terminology

Mrs.SG says that squeak forgot to sign he guest book.
That was a good move having him jump and asking those young women who were passing by to bring him back upstairs.
Glad to see you post - hope you're feeling better.

Thank you, I have recovered and am out and about. I may not even be using the cane for much longer either! I can walk around without it within the confines of my apartment.

Good, but don't push yourself to do too much too soon.

What did you do to your leg? Just strained it or something worse?
