A lifetime ago: Second to last row, flying back from ATL to YYC via MSP on a Northwest (RIP) DC-9. A 450-lb guy next to me, pushing me up against the window on the two-seat side of the plane. The engine sound was the only thing that made it bearable. I was never so grateful to have a middle seat on an A320 for the second leg of that trip
