Some great ideas here!

Maybe the cabin crew could wear 'snore detectors' then they could be alerted if the pilots fall asleep?

Or maybe have a 'view the flight deck' as an option on the in flight entertainment then any passenger could alert the cabin crew if they see anything untoward happening in the cockpit.

I like the one about cabin crew fitted with radios tuned to 121.5.

Tracy this is London, could you check the crew are okay?
