So Im thinking putting a FLIR Safire under the wing may not be a hot idea, although it can be done.  Im leaning towards just keeping it on the fuselage.

How's your ground clearance with it mounted on the fuselage?  Biggest advantage I can think of for the wing mount is ground clearance.

Clearance is great. The CHP flies 206's with MX15's on the fuselage.  I have a Gyrocam DNV with an extended range lens on mine. Same size as the MX15 but no thermal.  Its about 10 yrs old. Time to upgrade.  We may just stick with the 8500FW and save weight.
