Let's not panic over this, let's wait to see what the final out come is, we know there are not enough 406 ELT's on the shelf to equip all the aircraft in the US. they must bend this to fit the real world.

My advice is to comply with 91.207, by inspecting the 121.5 ELTs and re-installing them, and turn them off, 91.207 does not say the unit must be turned on, it says it must be installed, and operable.

and many agencies are pushing for the PLB's to be added to the allowable units.
