What happened

At 10:00 UTC on 6 November 2026, ROT226M, a Boeing 737-800 registered YR-BGL, began transmitting transponder code 7700, general emergency, near Otopeni (OTP) at 2,300 ft.

The code stayed up for about 16 minutes; we last saw it at 10:16 UTC, by which time the aircraft was at 2,300 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.
