What you did do was make a stupid, erroneous statement that ELT's operating on 121.5 MHz are worthless. They're not.

True, they are NOT worthless.

What they are is, completely inferior in every way to a modern PLB.




I agree that compared to a PLB, an ELT is a waste of money. 121.5 ELTs will not be monitored by satalite in the near future reducine their effectivenes even more.

You better belive that I will install a modern PLB in any airplane I own/build.
 
Exactly. Kind of on the same lines as the bank robber bailing out of the 72. Never found a body or the money if I remember correctly.

Always gonna be some conspiracy whacko's out there.

A kid found a few $k buried in the area he jumped about 15 years after it happened, if I remember correctly. All of the serial numbers on the buried bills matched the ones used to pay the ransom.

Yeah, totally the same. Only difference, one is a completely true story about a real person. The other is wild conjecture by a total nutjob. And in very poor taste I might add.
