If I were to be persuaded that an ELT was a necessary
peice of equipment, and in the UK at least I see no
urgent need, I think I would want it to indicate where
I was and not where the wreckage of my glider was.
The bit that might need urgent assistance will be me
and not the collection of plastic bits. I have to say
that the requirement for ELTs to be fitted to a glider
seems to miss the point that unlike GA powered aircraft
glider pilots have the opportunity to leave before
the wreckage interfaces with the ground. I would be
interested to know the thinking behind the requirement.
