    Default Airband transciever efficacy or value in emergent times?

    I have a Yaesu Pilot 2 Airband transciever leftover from my flight training days. As I'm not wealthy enough to fly for fun and recreation, the radio has been unused for years. With all of the ham radio talk here I'm wondering if the Yaesu would be of any value in a preparedness comms kind of way. Or, do I sell it and put that money into a HAM radio like a Baofeng or two. Any thoughts or suggestions?

    RX 108.000 - 117.975 MHz (NAV Band)
    RX 118.000 - 136.975 MHz (COM Band)
