An electronic module assembly (EMA) for use in controlling one or more personal restraint systems. A programmed processor within the EMA is configured to determine when a personal restraint system associated with each seat in a vehicle should be deployed. In addition, the programmed processor is configured to perform a diagnostic self-test to determine if the EMA and the personal restraint systems are operational. In one embodiment, results of the diagnostic self-test routine are displayed on a display included on the electronic module assembly. In an alternative embodiment, the results of the diagnostic self-test routine are transmitted via a wireless transceiver to a remote device. The remote device can include a wireless interrogator or can be a remote computer system such as a cabin management computer system.

An occupant restraint system includes a plurality of occupant residences each including a restraint assembly having a latch mechanism manually movable between a latched state and an unlatched state and an electric lock mechanism movable from an unlocked state to a locked state when the latch mechanism is in the latched state. The control console includes an electronic display of the plurality of occupant residences and a user interface for actuating the electric lock mechanism between the locked state and the unlocked state. An occupancy tabulation system is constructed and arranged to send a signal to the control console indicative of occupied residences of the plurality of occupant residences for displaying an occupied condition associated with the occupied residences on the electronic display.

A rescue hoist includes a housing mountable to an airframe, a cable drum rotatably mounted in the housing, a traction sheave rotatably mounted in the housing positioned to one side of the cable drum, a cable, and a hook mounted to one end of the cable. The cable is wrapped around the cable drum in a first direction, over the traction sheave in a second direction opposite the first direction, and exits the housing under the traction sheave. The housing is compact and configured to be mounted to an aircraft under-wing.
