Yes, I know, it's stupid.

Now, it's the Aeronautical Information Manual.


Regardless, I'm having to do a presentation about ditching. Trying to
do the best job I can, I'm trying to consult every source of information
I can find. This is why I'm asking PPrue for help. You guys (persons)
are always good for discussions, information, etc.

As I research this topic, I've found that, effective 1 AUG 13, the U.S.
Coast Guard no longer monitors 2182 KHz. However, 2182 (I thought)
is an international HF emergency frequency. So, is 2182 KHz still valid,
and only the Coast Guard no longer monitors this frequency, or is 2182
no longer an emergency frequency worldwide? (i.e. No one monitors it,
anymore.)

I'm sure someone on PPrune knows the answer to this..... You guys
(people) are sharp.
