SPOT messenger

Good summary Darryl, thanks. I agree with your search area opinions as well. I assume it makes more sense to have the spot attached to the chute rather than the plane for pretty much all situations. I'm thinking of doing this. How has it worked out for other people? Does it work well sitting semi-vertical in a pouch on the front parachute straps, or does it work better sitting horizontally on your shoulder? Since it already misses an occasional message mounted in an ideal location (horizontal on the canopy rail), I don't want it to miss any additional messages. -- Eric Greenwell - Washington State, USA * Change "netto" to "net" to email me directly * Updated!
