What is this display for?

[rgamurot 1]

I was looking around airliners.net and found this image: http://www.airliners.net/open.file/1099761/L/ Notice the thing that looks like a display at the back of the pedestal. What is that for? Is it something new or only on Air France?Ryan GamurotLucky to live Hawai'ihttp://www.precisionmanuals.com/images/forum/supporter.jpg

That would be video surveillance for the flight deck entry. All operators have them somewhere on the flight deck, some more hidden than others...Regards,Markus

The regulations regarding the Flight Deck Entry Video Surveillance System (FDEVSS) are not universal and not every operator has their entire fleet modified worldwide. As far as I know only FAA Part 121 operators are required to install the system. http://www.airweb.faa.gov/Regulatory_and_G...45?OpenDocumentI would be interested if you have any other refferences to the current ruling as I work for a cargo operator and we are exempt from the it.Cheers,JohnBoeing 727/737 & Lockheed C-130/L-100 Mechanichttp://www.sstsim.com/images/team/JR.jpgwww.SSTSIM.com
