i'm 6'1 and if the person in front of me reclines their seat on an air canada or westjet 737, i literally cannot fit in a standard airline seat. it's not that i feel cramped, i have to pull my knees up and keep my feet off the floor if i don't want constant pressure on my knees from the seat in front of me. i always try to get the aisle seat so i can keep my legs in the aisle, and only have to curl up in an awkward position when the cart comes by.

6'5 and i don't fit sitting 'however i like' regardless of reclined or not. it is a very narrow range of heights under a limited set of postures where this actually makes any difference. but i do fit in any seat, even frontier, ryanair $50 plane seats, even on 14 hour econo flights by uncomfortably bearing a variety of postures and regular stretching breaks. that's just life.
