***Unless you're over 5'5" in which case, you'd have to crane your neck so low you'd be classed as a contortionist to see out the window

I'm 6'3" and I have no chance of seeing out a window. Even the 787 windows I have to twist around to see out of if i'm seated next to them.

I find that looking at the view from the window opposite (single aisle) or the closest window (wide body; I always sit in the middle block of seats as a rule) is just as good, baring any window 'hogs'.

I like looking out the windows, and leaning on the wall to try to sleep. But getting a good picture is a lot harder than it looks. I have managed a few decent shots of cities over the years.

Would swap for any sky bed any day but...

Of course, I'm happy to select a window seat on 1-2, 1-2-2, 1-2-1, or 1-1-1 configs.

Amazing photos!, I love the window seat but I usually have to give it up to the missus who gets airsick easily.

Yep, nothing worse than breaking the seal and needing to constantly ask your seat mates to let you out
