How often are emergency locator transmitters required to be inspected?
A
Every 12 months.✓ Correct Answer
B
Every 24 months.
C
After every 100 hours of flight time.
Explanation
14 CFR 91.207(d) requires each ELT to be inspected within 12 calendar months after the last inspection (installation, battery corrosion, controls and a check for radiated signal). 24 months is the transponder/altimeter interval, and there is no 100-hour ELT inspection rule.
