[QUOTE="ElHoncho, post: 297442, member: 6399"] +1 to these being a great product, pilot here and I fly with them, as do a lot of others I know who venture 'off airport' ... and that's in aircraft that have ELT (emergency location transmitters) hard wired in with automatic activation in the event of a crash, and transponders which 'squark' your location onto any radar that could possibly pick you up. If guys like me still see a need for them then they certainly have their place. But I think the real message everyone needs to hear is to carry something on your person, even if you are out with a mate it's no good if only one of you has an EPIRB or if you have one but its back at camp. To the best of my knowledge no prospector that has had a blue and set off their EPIRB has ever died. [/QUOTE]
