Check out - http://www.findmespot.com/ This looks like it is going to put some pressure on the Personal Locator Device manufacturers to drop the prices of their existing units. At US $8/year subscription, this looks worthwhile. Sorry, that $7.95 is for some sort of rescue cost insurance. The subscription is either $99.00 or $148.00 depending on options. Still, the sailplane guys are pretty excited about the product. It seems to me that any flight school would want one or two to have the ability to track their student's X-country flight progress.

At US $8/year subscription, this looks worthwhile. This won't affect sales of PLB's at all if pilots realize what they're buying. SPOT does not work at all unless it has a GPS signal. SPOT uses the Globalstar satellite network. It does not use any satellites that rescue personnel monitor. Globalstar itself is hanging by a thread as their entire satellite phone network does not work at all right now and won't for the next 5 years. If they survive. SPOT is nothing more than a gee whiz toy. |
