Squawk 7500, 7600 and 7700

Three transponder codes flag trouble on the radar screen without a word on the radio. You learn what 7500, 7600 and 7700 mean, a memory aid for them, and two rules for using them.

What you learn

• Say what 7500, 7600 and 7700 mean
• Recall the three codes with the memory aid
• Keep an assigned code unless ATC tells you to change
• Change codes without dialling through an emergency code
