I just visited the Museum of Flight in Seattle, where they have one of the old Concordes. I was struck by how tight and un-luxurious the cabin felt. I have only flown business/first class once, but it was definitely a lot nicer than the seats on the model I walked through.

It was more cramped because the flight only lasted 3.5 hours (NYC to Paris), you didn't need lie flat seats on a trans Atlantic flight that could go so quickly, in theory at least.

Also, when did Seattle flight museum get a Concorde? Its been a couple of years for me, but I'm surprised they have one. Looking on the website, it is outside...maybe we just missed it somehow?

Yeah, it’s out in the yard with the 747, dreamliner, etc. not sure when they picked it up, but it’s very cool! I suppose it could be a replica, but I’d be surprised if it was. It’s the full deal with cockpit and instruments, engines, gear, etc.
