With thousands of hours searching for persons in the water (P.I.W.s) from an aircraft, please believe me when I tell you that it is nearly impossible to spot a person in the water with no signals.
This kit combines the MST Over-Water Pouch signals with the ACR ResQfix 406 Mhz PLB w/GPS.
Contents:
ACR ResQfix 406.MHz PLB w/GPS,
3 Water Packets (4.225 oz. ea.),
First-Aid Kit,
Space Blanket,
Sea-Dye Marker,
14 Function Multi-Purpose Tool,
Cyalume Light Stick,
Waterproof Flashlight,
Strobe Light,
Signal Mirror,
SOLAS Whistle,
20 ft. Nylon Line,
SunX Sun Screen / Insect Repellent.
There's plenty of room to add the Greatland Rescue Flare for even more signaling capability!
What Aviation Consumer had to say:
"For small kits, we like AST's over water fanny pack. It's inexpensive, practical and because you can wear it, there's no chance it will be left behind. The pack has room room for adding personal items and a PLB, an addition we think every owner should consider".
