I hesitate to suggest technical solutions since not everyone is comfortable
with using fancy technological solutions (and also because new problems may
be added), but why not require such aircraft to install a USB video camera
under the nose of the plane with the cable terminating at a low cost laptop
or tablet PC in the cockpit? The cameras are relatively low cost these days
(as low as $20! [1]) so the major cost is in the laptop or tablet PC.
