A bill to amend section 601 (d) of the Federal Aviation Act of 1958 to remove certain exemptions from safety standards requiring installation of emergency locator beacons, and for other purposes.

Removes the exception of jet-powered aircraft, aircraft used in air transportation, aircraft used solely for localized training purposes, and aircraft used for aerial application of chemicals.

Exempts military aircraft from the requirement that fixed-wing, powered aircraft must have emergency locator beacons.

Requires that minimum standards requiring installation of such beacons prescribed by the Federal Aviation Administrator and as changed by this Act shall become effective with respect to civilian aircraft not earlier than six months and not later than one year after enactment of this Act.
