Batteri til Breitling Emergency

[GTwatch]

Både ICAO (den internationale luftfartsorganisation) og IMO (den maritime pendant) står nu bag ændringen. Se f.eks. http://www.cospas-sarsat.org/firstpage/1...aseout.htm

Citat:Cospas-Sarsat made the decision to cease satellite processing at 121.5/243 MHz in response to guidance from the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) and the International Maritime Organization (IMO). These United Nations organizations mandate safety requirements for aircraft and maritime vessels and have recognised the limitations of the 121.5/243 MHz beacons and the superior capabilities of the 406 MHz alerting system.

The digital 406 MHz beacons offer many advantages over analog 121.5/243 MHz beacons. With a 406 MHz beacon, the position of the distress can be relayed to rescue services more quickly, more reliably and with greater accuracy.

Så mon ikke flyveledelsen følger med gradvist indenfor en overskuelig årrække, ligesom det er sket med RVSM, 8.33 kHz, etc. så alle hobbyflyverne kan komme med på vognen løbende?
