Default Glider accident near Altoona... interview with pilot

What seems really strange is the the rescurers didn't have a simple,
inexpensive, GPS so that they could zero in on the pilot quickly. The
narrative indicates that the pilot had to guide them in via sound.
Even cell phones now have GPS. This should be required equipment.
