Beware of the TSO! At the bottom of the article (about "big and tall" flyers) it has this funny blurb about what a TSO is.

One major airline got itself into a heap of legal trouble when its supplier of seat-belt extenders experienced a small design oversight. This item is generally classified as a ?Technical Service Order? or TSO, and the Federal Aviation Administration is often abbreviated as FAA. Since the supplier printed FAA on one side of the belt and TSO on the other, when it was buckled it read FAATSO. By the time the problem was spotted, the supplier had already manufactured several thousand extenders, so I guess you could say it was a BIG problem.
