That makes sense, because the engine is cooling down during that 30 min and the delay will keep the battery from hitting that red line. > > If taken at face value, the second seems to say that you're limited to 90 minutes of flight time.

From: "rparigoris" Hi Group I have a new, purchased long ago Ameri-King AK-451 AF ELT. I'm ready to install it in my Experimental Europa. Is it still a valid ELT? I believe there may be some ADs if installed on Certified Aircraft. Will it affect me? What do I need to know? Should I replace it? Thx. Ron P.

I'm not sure about US rules but in Canada these ELTs can still be used in amateur-built aircraft if you can find fresh batteries for them and they pass the yearly ELT check: Electronic Code of Federal Regulations (eCFR) If it passes the test, it's good for another year. The two I looked at in the last few years did not pass the test.
