Just a heads-up…
Please note that NPA 2017-03 ‘In-flight recording for light aircraft’ is now open for consultation on the EASA website

Sounds possibly quite interesting!

This only concerns CAT and Specialised Operations, and then only turbine airplanes with MTOM of at least 2250 kg or any aircraft with more than 9 pax seats. I had a quick glance at the proposal and it seemes quite reasonable. There would be no need for crash-protected memory and I got the impression that even a video recording of the instrument panel would suffice!
