Yup - I think it proves that when the chips are down, it matters not if you fly a jiffy bag or a large chunk of extremely noisy metal and plastic. We are all banded together by our passion.

Can anyone post on here, details of that ELT(???) transmitter thingie?

Once activated, sends out a pulse via satelite. In hindsight, not a bad addition to the toy necessities,

Donate some money, and pray that it will help to find the man, and hope that never money has to be collected for your search party.

The search continues & we are hoping for a positive outcome. I salute the people who have dug deep into their pockets to help with the enormous costs involved with the sar. At times like this, it is good to see the synergy between all of us aviation enthusiasts
