"NOTE 6. Determination for compliance with 27.562(c)(5), Head Impact Criteria (HIC) must be performed for any equipment installed in the cockpit or passenger cabin."
Does this regulation have scope for interpretation, which includes wearing of a helmet to lessen the effects of impact? In relation to this clause below, does wearing a helmet mitigate the HIC risk of the temporary installation of a TV monitor that is within striking distance of my head when I operate a cineflex?
(d) An alternate approach that achieves an equivalent or greater level of occupant protection, as required by this section, must be substantiated on a rational basis.
