The Artex (COBHAM) ELT receives position data from the aircraft navigation system. Once activated, the ELT transmits the latitude & longtitude via digital signal to the COSPAS/SARSAT satellite system. This allows Search & Rescue forces to launch an immediate mission to within 100 meters of the distressed aircraft. Artex also has developed a line of ELT’s specifically designed for Helicopter applications. Artex is a world leading manufacturer of Emergency Locator Transmitters & its products serve the commercial, military, business & general aviation markets.
