Breitling emergency watch from top gear comes to mind
- toothbrush 11y ago"Make survival suits that you can actually fly in" refers to "Then I undid my safety belt and opened the door. Instantly I was up to my neck in icy water. I was wearing a survival suit, but only around my legs and waist - the top part hung loose because I find it quite impossible to fly with one covering my arms and upper body." ..as i read it. Incredible story!
- rasz_pl 11y agoI mean Im not familiar with survival suits nor flying planes, so cant comment if there are any currently on the market fitting his requirements.
- kevin_thibedeau 11y agoEvery PLB has a lanyard attachment. He should have done a little more preparation and secured the survival essentials to his body or the life raft.
- joshuaheard 11y agoYes, they make many personal EPIRBs or emergency radio beacons (short range though) http://www.bing.com/search?q=personal+epirb&src=IE-SearchBox&FORM=IENTSR http://www.bing.com/search?q=personal+epirb&src=IE-SearchBox... They also make EPIRBS that activate automatically when submerged in water.
