Max-Vis or NVG

We considered the L3 version of this infrared system for our helicopter, but decided to stay with the NVGs because they are helmet mounted. In case of engine failure at night in the helicopter, I want to see where my eyes are looking and not straight ahead like the fixed mounted IR systems. I would give them a second look if they did make a helmet version. We probably will buy the L3 IRIS for our King Air because it is already certified on that aircraft and the price is right.
