Hi all,

as an engineer I can appreciate all POV's from aircrew's regarding fires.

A visual aid would be of great help in these types of testing times for example.

I work with a fleet of AW139's and they all have a camera mounted on the verticle fin, so gives a great view looking forward from the tail and can be easily accessed via the displays in the cockpit. Would be a useful visual aid when presented with a fire warning.

I would think that from a commercial POV that this type of kit (which is a kit from the manufacturer) would possibly lower insurance premiums...and/or pay for themselves so to speak?

Just a thought.
