Now that AA is starting to switch fromB767-200's to A321's I took a minute to look back at the seating charts.
In the early 70's AA used B 747-100's which seated 420 in 3 classses ( flew one in 1971 when I was 4)
Then they switched to DC-10's which seated between 241 and 272 in 3 classes.
Then came the B767-200's with 168 seats
and now the A321's with 102 seats
at this rate by 2050 they may be flying C-172's
btw their 707's had 147 seats
