Funny. Tracker along with the "fearsome finger of fate" Sure FDRs and CVRs are there but are typically useful after a mishap. Cameras monitor everything nowfrom bank tellers to equipment operators all the time in our world. I'm certainly not advocating for lav cameras. Riddle me this. If you say it's the worst idea ever then sure let's discuss why. We're all about safety whether enhanced medicals or more realistic sims or differing age limits for that matter. For the most part these are only snapshots that may or may not reveal an issue. Those who hold a security clearance are subject to continuous credit monitoring now and not just every 5 or 10 years. Cameras don't discriminate that's for sure. Actually, think of how many jobs at an airport are under video surveillance 24/7. Why should the flight deck be any different?

I mentioned this on another thread related to the 121 world. Serious question. Why not put police style body cameras on the crew? Reviewable by the FAA and management for performance or competency degradation. We have no issues putting them on law enforcement for accountability. Pilots arguably carry as much responsibility as law enforcement with regards to the public. No he said she said sts.

Certainly glad this is available. I was looking at FAA Advisory Circular 120-82 and if I read it right it specifically requires de-identification of the data, so it doesn't identify a certain flight/crew/time etc.
If any entity ever pushes for cameras, I see it being the insurance companies. If an operator is given enough of a discount on insurance, they might go along.

Cameras hard wired to the aircraft would be a mountain of paperwork with FAA taking years to approve for a particular aircraft. That's why I mentioned stand-alone body cameras. My hope is they catch evolving problems BEFORE they became a mishap. All crewmembers whether 35 or 65 get the same scrutiny. I have no doubt Unions would fight it, but they would have to make a case why they won't tolerate it. It would then come down to what the FAA decides to put it in the rule book.On a side note the SCOTUS muddied the waters on the authority of government agencies to make rules outside specific instructions from Congress so there is that.

You can star in your own Truman Show voyeur special.
It’ll be fun.
