Large aircraft flying over water have an adequate supply of life rafts, visual aids, and emergency portable radios. The rafts in transport aircraft are, for the most part, the large 20-man type. in military aircraft, the 7-man type is still in wide use, as well as the 20-man type. Single-engine military aircraft will usually be equipped with a one or two-man raft. Small civilian aircraft will probably carry only the one-man life raft if they carry any at all. 5, record 1, English, - life%20raft
