There are Some Spotters unlike other people who don't make Stupid comments on things they know nothing about .
Tony Farnborough :mad: |
been reading the thread, of course, but only reading it
not sure my 3 hours of 777 flight deck experience counts:p |
New here, so Hi! :ok:

been reading the thread |
RE 777 transponder question
Sorry to interrupt but maybe since it's so quiet I could ask a question pertaining to the 777 and the aforementioned thread- Can the transponder be turned off from within the cockpit? Can it be turned off from anywhere?
Thanks |
I've just read my airliner tech book on the Boeing 777 development and history but can't see a reference to this yet, I will try looking on the t'internet so I can give a correct answer to all the questions......:\:E
Ok, I'll go back to watching aircraft from the beer garden in a certain public house near the perimeter of Manchester airport runway. Well the one I can see, I believe there is a second one near the aviation viewing park.:ok: Please read this as a tongue in cheek reply from someone with a more than passing interest in aviation. :) |
To paraphrase Springsteen: 'There's two thousand posts and nothin' on'. I guess it could be worse and we should be grateful. Given the quality of some of the posts us mortals are allowed to see I hope there is a special place in internet hell reserved for many of the ones the mods have junked. |

Yup, there goes the territory! The MH370 madhouse has found us!
:rolleyes: |
Thank you Claybird, for that answer.
^ Yes, I know there is now a thread on MH 370 in this subforum for um.. lay- persons, clotting up quickly, too so imagine most of you will avoid it - please allow me a few more questions on this quiet and unrelated thread. In the main forum post # 3969 ( # subject to change I suppose) has a map of ACARS coverage which makes a good point about the ACARS not ceasing to function from crash, but deliberate piloting to avoid it. Do you agree ACARS detection avoidance is possible in this manner? There is also a lot of chat about unusually high altitude deviations, mostly dismissed as radar fuzz, would there be tracking technology that a higher altitude would thwart? Thanks much |
