What does squawk code "7500" mean?

I'll give the other members a chance too.
I want to know the exact meaning, but Andries you're getting close.
I need the exact word.

It's been a time since I last went into this topic but here I am again

Squawk 7500 means there is a hijacking in the plane.

In case of a crash you could easily locate the wreck ?

MD-11 · Post by **MD-11** » 03 May 2005, 08:57

Better visibility in bad weather?

8O Unbelievable ! 8O Looks like they didn't have much faith in their own pilots/aircraft ...

It was a pure guess, but I got the idea from the 'Black Box' which is fluorecent orange for that reason.

NEW QUESTION : For how long can you get oxygen from the oxygenmasks (in the cabin) above your seat, when there are 3 seats next to each other ? (I am talking about the oxygen masks that drop down in case of a depressurisation of the cabin)

Greetz,

Andries

That would depend on the aircraft and the tank size but I would guess aprox... ONE HOUR.

Andries · Post by **Andries** » 04 May 2005, 11:57

Sorry, not correct ...

Greetz,
