    By in large most inReach pickups go with out any issue, but occasionally the don’t… the worst one I’ve been privy to were co ordinates either generated or provided that were initially 2.2km out. The couples head torches were what located them over a kilometre from a revised position.
    Have also seen situations of family being sent messages lacking context or missed scheds and aircraft being prematurely tasked to individuals not requiring help.
