Andrew Parker is the Creator of the “Flying High for Kids” project. Over five years, he took kids in 87 countries to fly in balloon, thereby encouraging them to follow their high dreams. DB Schenker donated a UBITracer Multi-Sensor GPS (“Smartbox”) to him to track his route and belongings.

He took a leave from flying the balloon for 6 days while in Namibia, and returned to find his truck had been ransacked, with all his personal belongings gone. The thieves had taken just about everything, even all the clothes, linen, towels, etc.
The thieves also took the UBITracer Multi-Sensor GPS. Andrew went online and found the location of the tracker, and where it had been, where it had stayed and each for how long, and when it had movement while he was away. The police and Namibia Army gathered a team of 20 men and went in three cars to raid the location of the UBITracer.
Sure enough, they captured three thieves and found the UBITracer Multi-Sensor GPS and about 25% of Andrew’s belongings, including two of the most expensive items.
“Thank goodness for the Smartbox tracker which was sponsored by the logistics company, DB Schenker. It’s used for tracking freight usually, but it proved invaluable in this case.” Andrew said.
