2026-09-30: Seat labels, numbering gaps, column letters and Economy Plus assignment transcribed from United's archived official map image; standard dimensions from the matching aircraft page. Economy Plus is a zone within a shared economy cabin. Source table/image conflicts are recorded in the UA audit. Window alignment is unknown. Only published limited-recline exceptions are flagged; ratings default to standard. The schematic furniture inventory is intentionally incomplete, so unverified adjacency/bassinet/window flags from the prior inferred grid were removed. Current per-tail fleet counts, hardware, connectivity rollouts and all legacy amenity descriptions remain outside the verified claims. Exact primary conflict: version2 table16F/54N/102Y totals172 despite166 heading; archived image enumerates16F/54N/96Y=166 and controls this grid.
