The A380 has a pretty large recorder in the ceiling. Airbus A380 - cockpit | p a n o r e p o r t a g e | g i l l e s v i d a l
Some of the 145s I fly have closed circuit systems in them and I don't recall any special GOM provisions about turning it off. |
That A380 cockpit panorama is really cool.

Who knows what else could be effected. Is it going to cause the explosive bolts on the wings to fire, dooming the airplane? No. But it might create an unneeded distraction at the wrong moment.
Also an analog cell phone (still used in some less-populated areas of the US) in the back seat row will set off the cargo smoke detector in a CRJ 200...that's an automatic blow the bottles and land at nearest suitable...$$$$$$$ |
As of late the only interference I've heard of with an aircraft is the alleged jamming signal that brought down the BA 777.

Put your cell phone near the cup holder on the crj200 and the damn efis comp mon goes off twice as much as normal. Anyone who has flown it knows that thing goes off too much as it is.

Give me a break their are more important things going on in this industry then worrying about us taking pictures during takeoff and landings. If we followed the rules to a T we would never leave the ground, just keep your pictures and videos to yourself.

Maybe it's cell phones causing the never ending barrage of "duct mon fault" status messages.

Many on here think they are owed some amount of "respect" because of their chosen profession. However, when one reads a thread like this one sees a bunch of people griping over the feds cracking down on them taking videos of themselves flying. And you wonder why you're looked down upon by those of us at the majors. This is a career and not some after-school job. When many of you refer to your peers as a "tool" because they follow the rules, that doesn't say much about your level of professionalism. In fact, it further reinforces the stereotype that many of you at the commuters/regionals are nothing more than a bunch of young punks with shiny-jet syndrome. Why do you need to film yourselves in the first place? Do you honestly think that people are impressed because you fly an RJ? |
