40 some odd years ago Boeing in the 747s as well as Douglas in the DC-10s had their galleys down below in many of the airplanes they sold.
I rode those little elevators down into the galley's many times.

I recall that a flight attendant was killed in an elevator on a DC10 flight when it malfunctioned. RIP

I did ops at DFW for ATA. L1011's had galley elevators too.

I never knew that in regard to the flight attendant on the DC10. The weight penalty for the elevator will probably be the deciding factor...
