ELT replacement: Options?
I was just informed by my mechanic who is performing my annual that my ELT is
fried and needs replacing. I have two choices: Replace the Artex model with the same one, or upgrade to a newer unit that transmits on the new frequency. If I go with the replacing the existing model, it transmits on a frequency that won't be monitored by satellites starting sometime 2009. Of course, there is a big discrepancy in price between the two types of units. Regardless of what one I choose, I have to include the cost of installing a remote test switch, since my aircraft doesn't currently have one. Has anyone else faced this decision recently? If so, what model did you choose? -- Peter |
