Ah yes, the shitlord counterpart to Raging Chestpain's business cards!!! I have final exams to procrastinate studying for. Ya'll will have templates shortly Edit: I'm actually having a hard time placing the exact language for the FAA guidelines. This is what I've found:  PROTRUDING PASSENGER SEAT ARMRESTS. Inspection of the Hardman Model 9500 and other passenger seats installed on several aircraft, disclosed that the armrest in the upright or stowed position can protrude approximately 45 degrees aft the seatback. In the event of an emergency evacuation, protruding armrests could present an obstacle between seat passageways, obstructing emergency exit access. Air carriers should emphasize to F/As that prior to takeoff and landing they verify that the armrests are in the normal forward/down position in order to ensure that they do not obstruct the passageway between the row of seats leading from the aisle to the emergency exit.  Is this it or am I barking up the wrong tree?
