Access Control
& Security Systems

Continental Airlines will initiate a pilot project to equip a Boeing 777 aircraft with a Cabin Monitoring System as an added element in its flight security program.

A multi-camera video system will allow pilots in the flight deck to observe various areas of the cabin, mainly focused on ensuring security in the vicinity of the flight deck door. The system also gives the cabin crew an additional source of information about the cabin status through flight attendants' communication with the flight deck.

After in-service trials and review, Continental will evaluate extending the program to other aircraft.
