What does it cost to buy and install a. CVR?
I have flown aircraft that had them and did not have any concerns about what could be heard on them to include the personal chit chat that occurs during normal operations.
Is it a cost concern or something else that the Helicopter Industry seems to use to excuse not installing such equipment.
I can see a cost issue for FDR installations but is it time to go that route as well for medium and large Rotorcraft as a certification requirement?
Just to obtain a detailed study of the issue is not cheap!
