We reported last week that the CAA was about to issue an exemption from the ANO which to allow <a href=’newsfeed.php?artnum=543′ target=’_blank’>personal locator beacons</a> to be carried in lieu of an emergency locator transmitter while a further review is undertaken.
As reported on <a href=’http://forums.flyer.co.uk/viewtopic.php?t=31993′ target=’_blank’>our forums</a>, the United Kingdom Mission Control Centre (<a href=”http://www.ukmcc.co.uk/” target=”_blank”>UKMCC</a>) has requested that all PLBs used for aviation be registered with them. There’s a simple form which you can download from that site to fill in and return to the UKMCC to give them the details of your unit.
