Good hopes for Horace's new endeavor, in the words of Peter Drucker: "The best way to predict the future is to create it."

Definitely something I'd want next time I have to eject from my uncontrollable fighter jet.

Now, is that the ONLY emergency beacon I'd travel with? Hell, NO! Do pilots lack GPS and radios with global radio service? Ditto. So, what percentage of those emergency watches should ever be used for such? Approximately 0.0%.
