Good piece of safety kit

[GeorgePerry]

A buddy of mine at the airport showed me a new product by life gear that I think is a great piece of kit.  Its a small plastic flashlight / glowstick / flasher and whistle in one.  Very inexpensive, $5 @ home depot.  The red glowstick function would really be nice to have if flying at night or if unexpected electrical problems arise.  The white flashlight is bright enough for "in cockpit" use without destroying night vision but probably not ideal for night time maintenance.  Anyway, I like the product and bought one to put in my "just in case" pouch.
