Are these required on small private airplanes, or optional?


Required, and have been, predateing 9/11 for many years.

Well, I guess we boaters are about to get lumped into a similar requirement.
But, if it's any bigger than a walkie talkie, they're gonna have to buy me a
bigger boat, because I am out of space for any more toys.
