What's the view from the airplane during a landing near minimums? I once had the task of evaluating a fix to a Gulfstream G450's thrust reverser system, which I thought might present some challenges. How am I going to see the thrust reversers deploy and stow from the cockpit? How do I compare that to the engine instruments? I put cameras everywhere. The result showed the reversers worked just fine. But some of the cameras picked up more views that ended up showing how things looked from three different perspectives.
