Eurocopter and aviation beacon specialist Kannad are introducing a  “new-generation” emergency locator transmitter (ELT) that features  antenna redundancy. The jointly developed “emergency distress beacon”  for helicopters, called Integra, uses a GPS and an integrated antenna.  If the external antenna is broken, the Integra beacon’s integrated  antenna automatically takes over.
