Spanish Air Force plane sends distress signal

The Spanish Air Force Pilatus PC-21 gave a distress call. The plane was flying from Murcia. The end point of the route is unknown.

Some time after the flight, a distress signal was sent - the code Squawk 7700. As a result, the plane returned to the place of departure. This happened 3.5 hours after the flight.

The 7700 code applies in the event of a general emergency on board. However, this is not always associated with the threat of disaster. What exactly happened this time is unknown.

Meanwhile, earlier our publication reported that the flight of the national Indian airline Air India made an emergency landing due to reports of a bomb on board. The plane was flying from Frankfurt am Main to New Delhi.
