What happened

At 04:10 UTC on 3 November 2026, N912JM, a Rans S-18 Stinger 2, began transmitting transponder code 7600, lost communications (nordo), near San Diego (SAN) at 800 ft.

The code stayed up for about 0 minutes; we last saw it at 04:10 UTC, by which time the aircraft was at 0 ft. 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. 7600 means radio failure: the aircraft has lost two-way communication with air traffic control and is following standard procedures. Nothing here is confirmed by the operator or an investigating authority; it is what the aircraft broadcast.
