    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Dear friends and followers,welcome back to my channel! Today's video will all be about "WHAT IS A SQUAWK CODE, and what is it good for?"
    As you get your IFR (Instrument Flight Rules) departure clearance, the ATC controller will give you a pre assigned four decimal code. After acknowledging the clearance you use the little numbered keyboard on your transponder to enter the give four decimal code and depending on your airline or airport procedure you set the transponder to the AUTO position. Meaning your transponder is set and ready to transmit that code and that code you´ve just set that´s the so called squawk code.
    So as take off, and the transponder comes fully active you turn up on the ATC controllers radar screen, but it won´t just be a blip indicating your airplane is in the air, it will also show the 4 digit squawk code, your current altitude plus your callsign. As you are now under radar control, the ATC controller can also look up your flight plan, so he knows where you´re flying to, the amount of passengers, crew, and fuel you have on board, and much more.
    Now depending on the airplane size and manufacturer, the transponder can come in different modes. For instance, little Cessnas or other smaller aircraft within the General Aviation category don´t necessarily need a transponder which transmits the airplanes´ altitude. Therefore a mode“Alfa" transponder will do the job, meaning it will only transmit the airplanes position and squawk code.
    But be aware the places where you can fly without an altitude reporting transponder are becoming less and less.
    To be on the safer side, your plane has to have a Mode "Charlie" transponder which transmits the planes´ position and its barometric altitude and squawk code. Obviously, those are a little bit more expensive, but the ATC controllers and other pilots benefit from investment and adding a TCAS system to it, you´ll feel a whole lot safer when flying around on weekends where the airspace is packed with weekend warriors.
    And as just shown before a mode Sierra transponder, which is above all other transponder modes and can also be used for data link messaging.
    But more to see within the video.
    The preset codes you have to memorize for are
    7500 Hijacking
    Seven Five - Man with a knife
    7600 Loss of communications
    Seven Six I need my radio fixed
    7700 Emergency
    Seven Seven - I´m falling from heaven
    The follow up video about the Transponder and it´s buttons and switches will follow soon.
    Thanks for watching, all the best your "Captain" Joe

    I remember a story from my flying days, years before 9/11. A fellow student was flying somewhere at 7,500 feet altitude. He was a little inexperienced with ATC, and so when he was asked to "squawk altitude" he just thought, oh, they want my altitude on the transponder!
    His flight was otherwise non-eventful until he landed and got met by people with badges.

    Hello Captain Joe, I'm an Brazilian ACC ATCO, also a big fan of your job and here we use a different way to memorize the emergency squawk codes. We use the "ICE" initials, meaning:
    7500 - Illicit interference;
    7600 - Communication failure
    7700 - Emergency
    When you have the opportunity to fly within my airspace, send me a note and maybe if I'm at work, maybe I can give you a more direct route inbound your destination. See ya!!

    @surgicalglitch3265 Před 5 lety +1

    I got taught this way; If you imagen that Aircraft have their own emergency telephone numbers as civilians do. Like 000, 911, 999 then you just need to apply the logic to aircraft.
    So for police/military presence (a hijacking) its: 7500
    For emergency assistance, fire/ambulance (Priority emergency) it's: 7700
    And for the last one, if you're unable to contact anyone you call your provider (ATC) on: 7600
    Once you relate or connect it to something like that it's very easy. The best way to remember numbers and complex commands, things of that nature that you don't use very often (and hopefully never need to) is to connect the theory with a relatable memory or better yet a similar mental procedure rather than creating new ones. Our minds are not full of infinite space and we need to constantly make room for new material, anything we don't use on a regular basis or is not ingrained for some sort of emotional reason tends to be dumped. Piolets cannot afford to dump procedures or emergency techniques.
    Take my lesson for what it is. I hope it helps as much as this video is informative on the subject.

      Standby means Stand by we might call if we need you and be nearby so you can come to work. Or it means be at the airport dressed and ready to fly and sit around waiting to see if you are needed. We never had airport standby at our airline. But they could still get you while at the airport and reassign us to a different flight. They would do this to cover a flight departing soon if your flight was a little later and then they had time to bring in someone to cover the flight you were to fly.

    one rule about squawk codes I've learned: make sure that the actual code-update is performed right-to-left.
    (on old-fashioned 1-button-per-digit transponders this made it easier to separate code-updates from 7X00 calls as digit rollover could create an illusionary 7X call if codes were updated left-to-right)

      @theroamingtofu9628 Před 7 lety

      It's the circuit pattern that GA VFR pilots fly in order to land in an airport. These terms are thrown around in other larger planes and IFR approaches as well if the airport has a circle-to-land approach (the crazy hard type of approach where the pilot uses a timer), or an IFR approach pattern that sort of re-assembles a circuit.
      1. Departure leg- the part where you climb straight out of a runway
      2. Crosswind leg- 90 degrees left/right of the departure leg, and you fly away from the runway. It's called crosswind because you take off into the wind in the departure leg, and when you turn 90 degrees the wind will go from the front to your side.
      3. Downwind leg- parallel to the runway, 180 degrees from the direction you took off. You also keep a visual reference to the runway for your turn to base.
      4. Base leg- 90 degrees turn from the downwind leg towards the runway.
      5. Final- final turn from base towards the glideslope, and you go in for a landing.
      In the United States, the direction of turn is usually left, but in some airports it's right due to terrain restrictions and stuff like that. The direction of the turn in the circuit could be checked on your VFR sectional chart, as well as looking at the hooks from a painted, round symbol on the ground which lies directly below the windsock. If you are flying into a controlled airport, the ATC might tell you.

    • @spoor24
      @spoor24 Před 6 lety

      Base leg is not toward the runway, it is perpendicular to it. But yes, the order for an approach is usually downwind, turn onto base, and then turn onto final

    For those who did not watch all the way through: A transponder serves like a tag at a race where when radio waves hit it it sends back info. Changing the numbers changes what status the plane is at and those on the ground can act accordingly. Some codes include 7500 which warns of a highjacking.

      Nowadays it's pretty hard to gain access to the cockpit in a commercial airliner. And in case of a hijacker present in the cockpit, they may not know about this squawk code and depending on circumstances a pilot may be able to input this code surreptitiously. It's an alternative way of conveying very important information without alerting those around you by blabbing it in your mic.

      I would guess cabin crew would have some way of alerting the flight crew if such an incident was taking place. Once alerted in advance by cabin crew the pilot could then key in the code before any possible breach of the flight deck by hijackers. Flight decks/cockpits (particularly after 9/11) have better security with stronger doors which is now procedure to have them shut during flight.

      @Phroggster Před 7 lety +3

      The yoke/stick should rarely need any input to maintain the vessel's trajectory. The problem is if your altitude or indicated airspeed (i.e. wind) changes for whatever reason, the control surfaces will need to be adjusted to continue to maintain the desired trajectory. Input to the yoke/stick/pedals will thus be required. Trim is then adjusted to re-center the controls so that they no longer require any pressure to maintain trajectory.

I am curious why the option to turn the transponder off even exists. Thanks Joe keep it up I am loving learning this stuff.

  • @lelandv1969
    @lelandv1969 Před 2 lety

    Ref my post on your colleague's post (74gear):
    I really dig the one about "7500". One beef that I do have is that in Europe the VFR code is 7000, with a (VERY) small risk of inadvertently changing the second digit to 5,6, or 7. This is why in flight training we always put the transponder in standby mode before changing the code (though sometimes, some pilots forget to do that - not often, but it does and has happened -- with some rather interesting comments from ATC -- and sometimes a Cirrus DA40 pilot being met by police upon landing...🤪). More modern transponders in the last few years have a single button to push to go "squawk VFR" (thinking specifically of the Garmin and Avadine). I think in the US they use 1200 for VFR if I'm not mistaken, and more specifically to avoid the risk of inadvertently going to 7500, 7600, or 7700. Nevertheless, the 4-digit transponder codes (at least in Europe) are VERY gradually becoming obsolete since Mode-S is now standard requirement, and each aircraft has a unique hexadecimal mode-S code assigned to it, and most radar installations at least within territorial airspace in Europe are Mode-S equipped (though many ATC units still assign a transponder code for IFR flights, or other flights passing through one or more classes of controlled airspace just in case -- and some codes used specifically for IFR training even when in uncontrolled airspace -- remembering back to the days of training for my I/R).
    Add ADS-B to the picture and it's even easier to identify a specific aircraft no matter what 4-digit transponder code they are using, even using amateur passive receivers that are commercially available for aviation enthusiasts which can actually plot the exact position, altitude, and mode-S hex identifier on a map in real-time. As a bit of trivia for your viewers: The transponder codes have digits only between 0 and 7 (no 8 or 9). This is because the electronics in the transponders back in the day were based on the OCTAL system (and not binary, decimal, or hexadecimal).

      I can answer the question about the throttles; there are four of them for the four engines. If there's a problem, they can be individually powered down. Even the biggest airliners can fly with an engine down. During regular flight, the throttle levers move in unison. Hope that helps.

    Hi captain Joe, great video! The squawk code is actually an octal code, not a decimal code. (i.e. each digit is 0-7, not 0-9.) When the transponder replies, it transmits a series of pulses called a "frame" to convey a 12 bit binary number which identifies the aircraft. (A total of 4,096 possible squawk codes.) The frame consists of a start pulse, and stop pulse (called framing pulses) and in between the framing pulses are the 12 data bits. The presence of a pulse indicates a binary "1" and the absence of a pulse indicates a binary "0". (It's basically an asynchronous serial data message.) Each octal digit in the squawk code corresponds to three pulses in the pulse train. After the second framing pulse, there will be an additional pulse if the pilot pressed the IDENT button. This is called the SPI bit. (Special Position Identification) I once worked in radar data processing, so I know a lot about ATCRBS. (Air Traffic Control Radar Beacon System) Anyway, I don't want to get carried away because it gets much more complicated!

But according to the video (5:57) and every other website I have looked at the VFR squawk is indeed 7000. I am super confused now and I can't find any information as to why we squawk 2000 whenever we fly. We always file a touch and go slot or a flight plan before taking off, so maybe it has something to do with that. I have also never seen my instructor squawk 7000, even when we are in uncontrolled airspace. I'll ask my flight instructor the next time I see him, but I would be very pleased to have some clarification. Thanks for reading and responding!

    I've always been interested and respected aviation. The last few weeks I've really been getting into learning the codes and lingo. This video was the best bit of info in a short amount of time. There was quite a bit of codes I never understood but now do. Thanks.

      It means "SSR monitors" (7776 and 7777).

    I heard the following rhyme: 75: someone else wants to drive. 76: radio needs a fix. 77: we're going to heaven. Morbid, eh? Thanks Joe, your videos are awesome :)

    A week ago I was plane spotting Cleveland Hopkins Int'l heard "United flight (don't remember the number) 757 heavy, Squawk 7700 we have a medical emergency on board. Interesting to listen to all communications. Then I hear this after I see the aircraft on is final turn to short final United.... turn right at 0330, clear to land after turn, ARFF medical standing by for you at your gate. Never knew the squawk codes until now. Thanks, Captain Joe!

    I still remember my high school Aeronautics class, close to a Ground school in depth. They warned us to turn off the transponder when changing codes, for alarms go off somewhere, when you squawk any of those 3 codes!

      "4447-4452 Operations above FL600 for SR-71/U-2 operations from Edwards AFB (USA)"
      Now, using that might gets some attention! ;)
