From another forum: "Since the govt. is recommending this to make sure we're doing our job, I say they put a voice recorder into every office of a politician... Including the president."

+1. The arguement is that we're in a safety sensitive position charged with the lives of between 19 and 400 passengers at a time... Congress and the President are charged with the lives of what.. 300 million give or take... You want to record me for safety? I think we should be recording YOU for safety. I agree that it might make guys fly like a fed's on board, not sure if that's good or bad but can you imagine what a similar program would do to politics?

I wouldn't be surprised if someone recommended getting rid of the sterile cockpit rule and just not allowing any unnecessary conversations during the entire flight. They could justify it with the Northwest flight. "If they were not talking to each other, the probably would have not overflown MSP." 
That would make a 5 hour flight across the country pretty f`en boring.

Theoretically, this would be in place to prevent pilots from talking too much. What it will really do is push pilots to talk TOO LITTLE.........which can be just as dangerous. Effective communication is critical and this will stifle that very requirement for safe operation of aircraft.
If my conversations and comments are going to be monitored, I'll give them what they want and be the quietest pilot out there. Unfortunately, I'd be better and safer if I could speak freely.
This will be another example of something that sounds good on paper, but results in as many new problems as old ones supposedly solved.
Idiots.

I used to bang my feet in the rudder pedal wells on final sometimes. I knew IF there was an accident they would NEVER figure out the banging. Silly yes. But fun...

I like to make jokes and do impressions on trips. I get bored sometimes and try to entertain myself/my Captain. I hope the transcripts would read something like..
[Herbert the Pervert voice] Do you like popsicles?
[Hank Hill voice] D@#nit, Bobby!
[Ladies' Man voice] Would you like a fish sandwich?
I got more...
