- metadat 4y agoAirbus A380 has this in first class.
- glowingly 4y agoA similar camera was present on the old DC-10. AFAIK, it was removed after an pretty big crash in Chicago. Nothing to do with forthrightness, iirc (outside of the usual flying coffin perception of the DC-10). EDIT: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Airlines_Flight_191 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Airlines_Flight_191 Looks like it was a cockpit camera, not an external camera.
- _moof 4y agoI was on an Emirates flight that had this.
- tensor 4y agoI absolutely loved the few times I was in a plane that had a forward and downward facing camera that you could watch on the screen. So great to just watch it for hours. Windows are nice but in most transatlantic flights they are all closed the majority of the trip so that people can sleep.
