406 Beacon Reviews
Anyone seen any good written reviews of the various 406 EPIRBs and PLBs
currently on the market? What about exeperience? Looking for something small enough to keep on one's person but that would have decent battery life in cold water. Needs to be waterproof too. Helen

Helen,
For reviews of survival equipment for aviation, go to www.equipped.org It is a nonprofit organization (Equipped To Survive) dedicated to education regarding survival for pilots. The person who runs it, Doug Ritter, is generally accepted as one of the most knowledgable persons in the aviation survival field and has written widely on the subject. He was also one of the folks who helped get the PLBs approved for use in the U.S. All the best, Rick Helen Woods wrote: Anyone seen any good written reviews of the various 406 EPIRBs and PLBs currently on the market?
