The expert found it problematic to equip aircraft with video surveillance.
Only certified equipment can be installed in the cockpit.
Given the current sanctions, it will be difficult to get agreement from manufacturers, noted Valery Panarin, a distinguished pilot of Russia, director general of the Union of Flight Crews of the Russian Federation, on the "Moscow Speaks" radio station.
The point is not that [cameras - sort of. GM] cannot be supplied. Of course, you can install them. But the question concerns the cockpit. And only certified equipment can be placed in the cockpit - once. And second - only with the approval of the manufacturer. That is, you can't even install a handle bracket without agreeing with the manufacturer, because the handle from this bracket can fly out and fly somewhere under the floor. Accordingly, the mount for the iPad is only approved by the manufacturers and approved only. This is where it all comes down. Accordingly, the airlines will be able to deliver, but due to the fact that you know very well that we have sanctions from Boeing and Airbus. Getting permission to approve such cameras for installation is a big problem.
