On the news last night there was a segment mentioning that everyone of this years GM cars has a black-box under the drivers seat. This device records the vehicle's speed, application of brakes, deployment of air bag, and numerous other activities. In the event of an accident, this information could be used by GM, the insurance company, or the police.
It appears that the safety of light helicopters, and particularly recreational gyrocopters, could be much improved if this black-box was modified, or a similiar ecconomical device manufactured, for use in 'entry level' rotorcraft.
