406 mhz ELT
Excuse moi. Cette question est en anglais
French AIC 10/08 published May 01 states:
Para 2.11.12.1 From 1st January 2009, all aeroplanes and helicopters shall be equipped with at least one ELT of any type
Further in the AIC it states:
2.11.5 Frequency, coding and registration
Any emergency beacon (ELT or PLB) shall be capable of transmitting simultaneously on the following frequencies:
121.5 MHz and 406 MHz, be coded (according to ICAO Annex 10 for ELTs) and be registered from the national authority
in charge of initiating the search and rescue operations or from any designated authority.
Am I correct in thinking then that 406 MHZ ELT’s will be compulsory wef 01/01/2009?
