Wheelchairs can't be used on planes either so it makes sense that the airplane bathrooms aren't wheelchair accessible. As a 6'3" man, I also cannot use airplane bathrooms as they were designed for 90lb 5'1" individuals.
Are you trying to say that people who need wheelchairs are never on airplanes?
Nothing in your comment makes sense.
For example, a friend of mine gets a special wheelchar upon boarding the plane. That special wheelchair is small enough so that it can be used inside the airplane. His normal wheelchair gets loaded as cargo then.
Which literally goes back to his point as airplanes are not designed for wheelchairs. ...
I didn't get the sense that they were justifying it.
Mate, I'm 189cm (6'2.4) and manage perfectly well in a 737 bathroom whichever function I need to perform, so I'm not sure what the issue is. Your girth maybe?
I'm not girthy just unable to stand up in an airplane bathroom without hunching over to fit the curve of the fuselage.
