Red face Another daft question....

Please forgive me, I know not what I am saying....... but

Following the sterling efforts of the sensational Mr. Linton, does it not make sense for aircraft to have a horn or klaxon fitted? In the event of a complete engine failure or forced shutdown, aiming for a beach strikes me as eminently sensible. But how do the poor sods down below know you're coming? Cars don't require electrical power for the horn to work, so I guess that's not a valid reason for aircraft not to have one. Could someone please give me a devilishly effective put down as to the obvious reason why not....or perhaps just wonder along with me.
