It has been claimed that aircraft seats which face towards the rear are the safest kind. If this is so, why do almost all aircraft seats face forwards?
in no particular order (still raw ideas)...
What does “safe” mean in this instance?
Who creates safety standards?
What regulations are there about the arrangement of seats?
Does the Government have a role?
Who made the claim? What is the evidence?
What is the theory behind this research?
Will it disturb the flight in any way?
Does it make any difference to the manufacturers?
What do they think about this issue?
How much would it cost to change?
Would the cost of changing make ticket prices higher?
Have any airlines tried to do this already?
What about military aircraft?
Why not sideways facing?
What about passenger comfort? Motion sickness etc.
Are the seats comfortable when you eat?
What issues are there regarding the plane’s interior design?
What does the public think?
Could people be helped to feel more comfortable?
Does it affect the cabin crew?
Are there any negative side effects of rear-facing seats?
Does changing the seats create more space?
Does it affect the aerodynamics of the plane?
What other forms of transport face the same issue?
Are profits more important than safety?
What about at different stages of the flight? e.g. taking off, landing, cruising
What about when a plane crashes?
What about debris flying around the cabin?
Who will benefit from making this change?
How can we persuade people that the claim is true and the change is necessary?

With a thoughtful session of ‘generating questions’, you could be well on your way to writing an excellent essay even before you’ve done any research.
