Thanks for your support, Jan, but ST is correct with a total of 4096. Old age and dementia are obviously creeping up on me ! :ouch:

In the US they just tell you to "squawk VFR" (that's 1200 over there).

On a related topic, has anyone ever been asked to "strangle the parrot"?

Could it be that, out of the theoretical 4096, two can not be selected? Or, if they could be selected, they'd make no sense? 0000 and 7777, perhaps? |

That's because most of the USA is Class E airspace where IFR flight is mandatory and hence an individual code is allocated..
Now the purpose of class E is, at certain minimums, to have everyone on IFR below those minimums. I forgot to say but, 1200 is the VFR squawk |
I'm confused, what does strangle the parrot mean 🦜?

Squawk standby - because the early IFF kit was code name "Parrot"
A bit like "kill the rabbit" :ok: |

And they have the nerve to criticize our phraseology! And we even gave up our "taxi into position and hold".... saying "conspicuity" sounds like trouble....Muppettry of the finest kind.
