Re: Faulty Altitude reporting

[Paul McAllister <paul.mcallister@qia.net>]

Hi all,

Generally most of my cross country flying is IFR, (too lazy to navigate I
guess) and I find when listening to the general chatter on ATC that
mis-reporting of transponders is a common dialogue I hear.  The issue is
often resolved by the aircraft concerned cycling their transponder.

Obviously this is not the greatest situation, if you didn't have ATC telling
you that something is amiss then you would have no way of knowing.


Cheers,  Paul
