Instrument monitoring assembly

摘要

The testing of aircrafts is very expensive and time-consuming. Many test programs require detailed records of aircraft parameters which are only available from the cockpit instruments. In some instances it is necessary for the copilot to record manually these parameters during the test. When the testing requires both the pilot's and copilot's attention, problems arise, calling for duplicate instruments or the placement behind the pilot of a movie camera which views the instruments. Such problems are overcome by the instrument viewing assembly provided herein adapted for use where a plurality of instruments must be remotely monitored but where instruments are so separated that they cannot be viewed by a single viewing camera.
