SPOT Mounting - Parachute

My rigger added a webbing "hard point" on the left riser cover of a
couple of Mini Softies. The cover is only sewn to the harness on the
inside, velcroed on the outside to allow riser deployment. Position is
about perfect for the SPOT 1 that's on each. Best mount I found for
the older SPOT uses a modified pouch that Wings And Wheels used to
sell for the EBC 102 Personal ELT.
The SPOT 2 has it's own pouch so should be easier to mount on the hard
point.

I have several pair of jeans modified for flying. I have a had a pocket put
on the left leg just below the knee for my spot; right leg has a pocket for
my first aid kit - 2 things I want with me if I bail out. My glider has an
instrument pod rather than a panel. My lower legs have a clear view of the
sky thru the canopy. My Spot works great in this position and it's out of
the way. While it works for me, not a solution for everyone.

I use a small caribiner to attach my Spot 2 to the metal ring that my
chest strap clips into. I figure if the chest strap can clip in, so
can the Spot. I'm fairly reclined in my Kestrel and the Spot sits on
my chest looking upwards -- no issues getting reception. And I'd
rather have it with me instead of the ship, in case we get separated.
