Sqawks
« on: August 20, 2011, 03:41:45 PM »
Just noticed that none of the aircraft in 'My Flights' are showing sqawks in the grid. The option is ticked in Preferences. Network flights are showing sqawks ok. Any ideas ?

Squawk code are shown when a Mode-S Radar interogates a aircraft and it replies back with its squawk as well as other details. If none are appearing it may be the Mode-S radar is switched off at the moment. Which area are you picking up from? others in your location should be able to confirm this.

AN,

Picking up from SE Spain (Alicante region). Currently have 20 aircraft on 'My Flights' and only 1 is showing a sqawk code. All are showing altitudes. Perhaps ATC are having an extra long siesta today and not bothering to issue sqawk codes at the moment !

After almost 48 hours with no squawks showing against flights in 'My Flights', I can now report that things seem to be getting back to normal. I currently have 19 aircraft showing and 14 have squawks against them. Something strange has obviously occurred over the last couple of days which has now been resolved.
