Default Good SPOT advice

I recently read in a Canadian Aviation Newsletter that Search and Rescue strongly recommend that you put a statement in your SPOT SOS message that the unit is in an aircraft, as this will immediately trigger air search and rescue instead of a local response when the SOS message is triggered.

They suggested something like:

This SPOT unit is in an aircraft (give registration and type).


Something to consider...

Good morning or good evening depending upon your location. I want to ask you the most important question of your life. Your joy or sorrow for all eternity depends upon your answer. The question is: Are you saved? It is not a question of how good Excelsior Home Built 0 April 22nd 05 01:11 AM
