LONDON - A British company has come up with new airplane designs that have interiors like a tube train.

The most striking feature of the design is its seating arrangement where passengers would sit on seats with their backs towards the windows.

Design Q has come up with this idea for planes flying between destinations of an hour or less.

Design Q director Howard Guy said the new design would mean lighter and more fuel-efficient plans.he Daily Express quoted him as saying: “It is taking the idea of traditional transport like a train or bus and asking: ‘Why can’t we do this on a plane?’”

If the design is found to be secure and is granted approval, planes would be able to carry at least 10 percent more passengers. (ANI)
