Hi John, I got the impression you only fly solo - True ? If so you are
exempt, but of all the equipment in the plane, the ELT is one I would
certainly want working :-) So, I'd send the $20 - $30 to get an 121.5 if
I was not flying across the boarders. I see there is a batch of 4
complete ELT's
I would think NAFTA was low in the priority list as it did not help the
Mexican truckers trying to drive their 18 wheelers into the US w/o
meeting US DOT regs.

Guys,
To be accurate my plane never had an ELT so if I get one now it's "new"
isin't it?
Don't new installations require the 406 unit?

2 things,
In the regs just posted (e) 4 seems to indicate that while flying off
the 40 hours (testing) it is NOT required, did I get that right? (I
concur w/Mark L, these 40 hrs are not a good time to be without one).
Canada's regs imposes a unilateral trade restriction. I wonder if Nafta
or o
eriod. The 121.5 is less expensive but the 406 is
supposed to give a more localized search area. Is that what you want?

Well if nothing else, John's going to have to get a new set of airworthiness
operating limitations, just because he's flying it in a different area and
will need to

Unless they have recently changed the rules in the US, if you are flying
solo, you are not required to have an ELT. If you are not changing the
engine, different kind or size, then, just keep on flying off the hours. If
you changed from a VW to a Cont, or something like that, then only 5 hours

Hi,
My kr-2 got it's airworthyness cert, and operating limitations back in
the 1980's.
Now with a new motor, canopy, fordeck and cowl, I am sure they will want
me to fly off 40 hours in addition to the 22 already logged.
What abot the ELT? It has none now. No mention of one in the logs.
