ED Decision 2025/010/R
TYPES OF ELT AND GENERAL TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
(a) Point (a) of AMC2 CAT.IDE.H.280 lists the applicable types of ELTs. An ‘automatic ELT’ means an ELT(AF), ELT(AP) or ELT(AD).
(b) To minimise the possibility of damage in the event of crash impact, the automatic ELT should be rigidly fixed to the VCA structure, as far as this is practicable, with its antenna and connections arranged so as to maximise the probability of the signal being transmitted after a crash.
(c) Any ELT carried should operate in accordance with the relevant provisions of ICAO Annex 10 ‘Aeronautical Telecommunications’ Volume III and should be registered with the national agency responsible for initiating search and rescue or any other competent agency.
