Hi Kelly-

Note that even on experimental, IF you are required to have an ELT, it
must be a TSO ELT. Whether your DAR will exercise any discretion there
or not you won't know without asking up front.


I know this came up a while back, and I meant to run it to ground, but got busy and let it slip. My current understanding is different in that an ELT should MEET TSO, vs HAVE a TSO. I'm wondering if you have a reference source for for this issue. Things are evolving with some regs, and I'd hate to get caught unaware with a recent change!

The question is how do you prove "meeting" TSO without having actual TSO
testing done?
I know there are a few transponders that are experimental only that
claim to meet TSO, but they generally are based on a unit that does meet
TSO, such as the Dynon, that is made by Trig, who has several TSO
approved units.
