Pilot Survival System

This two-part Pilot Survival System was designed around one simple reality: in an aircraft emergency, what you’re wearing may be all you have.

Part One stays on your body—accessible whether you’re crawling out of the wreckage or pinned inside it. This wearable side-pouch focuses on the non-negotiables: stopping life-threatening bleeding, communicating with the outside world, and making yourself visible to rescuers. It includes critical tools like a SOF-T tourniquet, QuikClot gauze, knife, flashlight, Garmin inReach (optional), signaling devices, fire-starting gear, water filtration, and a notebook and pen for coordination or documentation. If you can self-rescue—or even if you can’t—you have the ability to stabilize injuries and call or signal for help immediately.

Part Two is your sustainment and mobility kit—the gear you move to once conditions allow. This is where comfort, endurance, and decision-making time are bought back. Inside you’ll find a compact stove, premium protein-rich freeze-dried meals, additional food and snacks, a Nalgene bottle, solar panel and power bank, LED strobe beacon, folding saw, paracord, expanded first aid and hygiene kits, fishing kit, headlamp, solar lantern, emergency bivvy, compass and signal mirror, bug headnet, leather gloves, and electrolyte and energy stick packs. Everything needed to stay warm, hydrated, nourished, and functional for multiple days.

Every item in this system was hand-selected based on real-world aviation and backcountry experience. This isn’t theoretical gear or gimmicks—it’s equipment that’s been used, tested, and trusted in harsh environments. A Garmin inReach SOS should bring help quickly, but rescue isn’t guaranteed to be immediate. This two-part pilot survival system is built to bridge that gap—keeping you alive, thinking clearly, and moving forward until help arrives.

Prepared. Practical. Purpose-built for pilots who understand that survival isn’t paranoia—it’s professionalism... And just plain smart.
