A JetBlue pilot accidentally reported that his plane was being hijacked at JFK, triggering a massive response of cops and firefighters who surrounded the craft on the tarmac, officials said. (www.google.com) 기타...
Yeah - putting NORDO next to HiJack always seemed to be asking for trouble. Especially with rotary knob transponders. You have to think carefully about which way to turn the knob.
Bigger question - Was the plane in the movement or non-movement area of the airport? Because the display of transponders tied to the surveillance radar on the airport ASDE-X are usually suppressed in the non-movement areas. (At least at any airport towers I'm familiar with). So if the plane was in the non-movement area - does 7500/7600/7700 over-ride the suppressed return?
Of course the pilot could have picked his smart phone and typed in accukwik.com and then entered JFK, retrieved the tower telephone number and called them....but then I’m old school!
Looking around Airbus cockpit in my head, I see 3 VHF comms wired to 2 antennaes,acars to dispatch, 2 HF's, dispatch phone number on the release and 6 crewmembers cell phones,and a cabin full of pax who each have a phone. No way to communicate except xponder? You can order pizza and deliver it to the cockpit with that amount of communication devices.
Related, with all the digital controlled transponders now, do they still teach student pilots not to ‘scroll’ through 7500, 7600 and 7700 when setting the transponder?
I did a search and found people talking about scrolling avoidance, and also those talking about Standby. So, I was not the only one that remembered it as scrolling avoidance.
The reason I say it makes more sense doing Standby is that someone scrolling could also pass through the transponder code assigned to another even if they avoided the 7700, 7600, etc.
Isn't it standard practice to turn the transponder to SBY when changing the numbers so you don't accidentally squawk an emergency number, or even another aircraft's code? We were always taught to turn the xpndr to Standby when changing the number, then back to ALT once it's set.
