[QUOTE="Darren11, post: 342086, member: 10264"] I work on a rescue Helicopter. Recently went to a beacon in the Palmer river gold field. Turns out it was set off because the gentleman who was traveling alone cross country had used up all his spare tyres and could no longer drive. No doubt he was in a spot of trouble but if you can carry a Satellite phone or some other form of communication other than just an EPIRB / PLB you would be far better off. Instead of winching him out and leaving behind his car possibly we could of dropped off some spares. [/QUOTE]
