EFW7EL squawked 7700 near London (LGW)

At 17:40 UTC on 1 November 2026, EFW7EL, an Airbus A320 registered G-EUYW, began transmitting transponder code 7700, general emergency, near London (LGW) at 17,300 ft.

The code stayed up for about 5 minutes; we last saw it at 17:45 UTC. The map shows the path flown around the event, colored from live ADS-B positions.

A squawk code is set by the crew on the transponder. 7700 is the general emergency code: it covers anything from a medical issue on board to a technical fault, and most 7700s end in a normal landing. Nothing here is confirmed by the operator or an investigating authority; it is what the aircraft broadcast.
