James Thompson Biography

James Thompson is one of the most popular and richest MMA Fighter who was born on December 16, 1978 in England, England, United Kingdom.

In 2003 Thompson began developing a lie flat business class seat called Vantage which is a fully horizontal flat bed.

Delta later announced that they would also install the Vantage on their 767-300ER fleet, which is scheduled for completion in 2013. More recently Thompson Aero Seating secured deals for the Vantage seat with some of the world’s largest airlines on various aircraft types, including Qantas (A330), American Airlines (B767), Air Canada (B777) and Etihad Airways.
