As for the camera, I watch the air disasters series and the plane that crashed in the early 80's or late 70's shortly after taking off from O'Hare had a new feature of a bird eyes view camera out the front of the aircraft. Word is that camera was slowly phased out after the accident. I think I read that some still had it for a few years after but it eventually disappeared.
