    Activating an EPIRB or PLB in Real Life

    Hi guys,

    Many of you would have seen the story recently about the family that got bogged in the middle of the Simpson Desert in their Camper Truck.

    They activated their EPIRB and had to have airdrops and air rescue.

    Here is a great interview with the guy that lived it. No Crap. No Social Media junk.... Just WHAT HAPPENED.

    Well worth your time to watch. 30minutes well spent. It might save your life one day.

    The last 5 minutes of the vid is the interviewer going through the options you have and how they work and it very informative.

    The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.
    WARNING: Towballs used for recoveries can, and do kill people and damage property.
