Delayed Evacuation

A common thread in delayed evacuations is that the flight crew is working checklists while unaware of deteriorating airframe and cabin conditions. Understandably the workload is very high after a reject or landing with single or multiple failures.

Video of the airframe and cabin would alert the cockpit to fire and smoke situations - that now remain blissfully out of their view - in time to initiate a successful evacuation.
