Did see a trijet over Frankfurt and was in awe how beautiful that thing was. Super long. Did I witness the MD80?

Was it a trijet?
The MD-80 has 2 tail mounted engines and a very distinct wing design

Smoking isn't coming back, it costs too much for the airliner to cycle the air like they use to - even if it was legal.
Seat configuration is up to the operator, if the tri-star were popular today it'd have 400 passengers. 787s typically max out at 3-3-3
The cabin width is almost identical to the A-350 and more narrow than a 777

Doesn't that depend on what version of the A350?

>The 1011 had better seating configuration (3-2-2-2)
What airline had that inefficient seating configuration, and why?

I think the L1011's biggest drawback (from the passenger POV) was it being rather noisy at the back.
