The F/As at Republic have been harping on the seat back stowage since we got our certificate. I guess the FAA was crazy about it three years ago, but it has taken this long to filter through the system and into established training programs. Personally, I love watching business guys stick their laptop in the seatback pocket, only to have the pocket fall apart and their laptop go crunch! Is it really that hard to put your laptop back in its case?
