Glider accident near Altoona... interview with pilot
Instead of choosing a "SPOT or PLB", why not consider a SPOT and a PLB? In aviation redundancy is good!
Wayne http://www.soaridaho.com/ "brianDG303" wrote in message ... The question I have about this is the effectiveness of the different alert devices while upside down. Would the SPOT get a message out, would the PLB? Where I fly there would be no cellphone coverage and no way to get a fire truck with an airhorn, so it would be SPOT or PLB and a very long wait.
