Aviation Transponder & Squawk Reference
Air traffic controllers identify and separate aircraft using 4-digit octal transponder codes (Mode 3/A and Mode S). Below are the universal standard codes and critical emergency procedures.
General Emergency (MAYDAY)
Declared by the flight crew during immediate distress, engine failure, severe medical crisis, or catastrophic system degradation. Triggers instant audio visual alerts on ATC screens.
Radio Communications Failure (NORDO)
Indicates total loss of two-way radio contact with air traffic control. The aircraft continues along the last assigned flight plan and altitude according to standard ICAO lost-comms procedures.
Unlawful Interference (Hijacking)
Silent transponder code set covertly by pilots in the event of an in-flight security breach or hijacking. Notifies military defense radar and sovereign intercept networks without cockpit annunciation.
Visual Flight Rules (VFR)
Standard code for unassigned civil visual flights outside controlled terminal airspace. Code 1200 is used primarily in FAA airspace; code 7000 is standard across Eurocontrol jurisdictions.

Why it matters
Aviation enthusiasts, spotters, and students need an accessible, zero-latency flight radar and ADS-B transponder visualization tool to understand air traffic management, airway corridors, and radar telemetry without heavy commercial tracker payloads.
When to use it
Use this radar tool when studying real-world air traffic routes, testing transponder squawk decoders (including emergency codes 7500/7600/7700), tracking flight corridor densities, or capturing radar vector screenshots for flight simulation preparation.
