CLB468 squawked 7700 near Edinburgh (EDI)

At 17:15 UTC on 5 November 2026, CLB468, a Diamond DA-42 Guardian registered G-COBS, began transmitting transponder code 7700, general emergency, near Edinburgh (EDI) at 500 ft.

The code stayed up for about 5 minutes; we last saw it at 17:20 UTC, by which time the aircraft was at 2,900 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. 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.
