As someone pointed out earlier in the debate about arms in the cockpit, maybe I am naive, but putting cameras in the cabin will not make the situation any safer, will it?
It seems to me that they are being fitted so that the travelling masses can see the industry is at least doing something to counter the terrorist threat.
Watching the terrorists/hijakers slitting throats on nifty little screens in the cockpit ain't worth a can of beans to the pilots unless thay can do something to affect the outcome.
Suggestions please, as to how we, the industry, effectively prevent the next 9/11.
Isn't that what all these discussions are about?
