A marine manual inflation life-jacket normally costs less than an automatic one, and is presumably OK for aviation use. Anyone knowledgeable on such matters to advise us?
Bought my first two from same well known company (got my mags today also!) for over £70. Bought two more from a website, can't give the name for advertising reasons, but if you were to type "cheap lifejackets" into google.co.uk you would get a match that is similar! Bu**ger me if the two I bought for less than half the price of the first two weren't identical! It's one of the few times I've felt thoroughly pi55ed of at the way we are exploited occassionally.
I know it's not a cheap past-time, and therefore some people assume we have money to burn, but it's simply not always the case!
