Why do they have a whistle on airplane life jackets?  email this discussion to a friend?

If people in the immediate vicinity don't hear a massive metal object of several hundred tonnes slamming into the ocean how are they going to hear a friggin' whistle??

Hehe, they should give them a flute instead, then at least they could amuse themselves.

Maybe a piccolo.....It would fit better on the life jacket...

If your plane were to crash in the water in the middle of nowhere, the whistle would come in handy. Image crashing in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean, and a search party looking for survivors in the middle of the night. You may need the whistle to get someone's attention.

However, I'd have to expect a search party to be rather loud (boat engines, plane engines, etc), and don't really think anyone would hear the whislte.
