Yes, Mate. Too simplified. 3 JQ 320s have the full galley and two lavs forward of the aft doors. This is the same set up as Tiger yet JQ only have 174 in that config.

I am shocked you have not noticed that! The offset is definately there. Look for reduced pitch in rows 2,3,4,5,6 and 11 DEF, from memory. How else do you explain the room for the galley bulkhead?
