Personal Locator Beacon - USA

JJ,

When I 'copied and pasted' the original report, the
hyperlink didn't make the transfer.

Go to:

http://www.noaanews.noaa.gov/stories2003/s2124.htm

for additional details and links.

For where to buy, I did a Google search with 'personal
locator beacon' and found one place, a boating supply
shop, had them for about $600, I think.

I checked Tim Mara's web site, www.wingsandwheels.com,
and didn't see any (yet). Maybe Aircraft Spruce sells
them? I haven't checked Tom Knauff's site or Craggy
Aero or any others.


Great story, Ray. Does anyone have more info on how
the PLB works and where to
buy it?
Thanks,
JJ Sinclair
