First poster here...does the A346 have a tail cam that you can view through v-port

Searched the archives but no luck

Hi and welcome:)

The simple answer is no, there are no viewable live cams on any of the Virgin fleet I am afraid.

If you are interested, this thread about a similar subject has some views from other V-Flyers on the matter, and it also gives a link to a previous similar thread.

There is a tail cam on all 600s but not for use by customers.

Been discussed before. The A346 has two camera's, one below forward fuselage & one on top of tail & isolated from IFE. Actually called TACS (taxi aid camera system).

Airlines that do provide this facility use a combined forward/downward looking camera mounted at the front of the aircraft, forward of the nose wheel.
