This is one of the most spot-on predictions I've ever encountered–not because of the aeroplane-to-home radiotelephone, but because in 1942 it accurately predicts how much leg room there is in a modern aircraft. The only way this chap could fit in that seat would be if his knees were jammed up against his chest.

It's a weight-saving feature - the pilot doubles as the undercarriage. (After all, normally the undercarriage is dead weight that the plane has to lug around with it most of the time)
