FAA suggests 25-hour cockpit voice recording time.

The FAA is proposing a new rule that would require cockpit voice recorders to capture 25 hours of information, up from the current two hours. The National Transportation Safety Board has recommended this standard after several incidents where investigators were unable to listen to key audio due to limited memory. The FAA held an emergency safety summit following a series of near-collisions on US runways and will establish an Aviation Rulemaking Committee to explore how to make greater use of data gathered by the airplane and its systems.
