OK, if all you want is to record data, then yeah, whatever you want to use
is just fine as long as you can keep it from interfering with any critical
functions on your plane. However, debugging all the potential EMI stuff
could be hell just to get things to work. I was being sarcasting about the
hacking comment....yeah, it was silly.

There are already enough other decent options that will work just fine
without the hassles of dealing with radio frequency stuff. Look at the
aviation versions of CAN. Well supported, cheap, and really easy. There's
also 1394, which is used a bunch in some new aviation systems.

don't turn off their cell phones and laptops etc., just uncontrolled.
