Part 2/8:
An Emergency Locator Transmitter (ELT) is a crucial safety device that emits a distress signal in the event of an aircraft accident. The intent behind the device is to facilitate search and rescue operations by directing rescue teams to the aircraft's location. While the specific functionality of the ELT may vary depending on the make and model of the aircraft, in larger aircraft such as the Boeing 767, the mechanisms differ significantly from those in smaller aircraft.
