PR-MBG squawked 7700 near São Paulo (GRU)

At 13:50 UTC on 6 November 2026, PR-MBG, an Airbus A320, began transmitting transponder code 7700, general emergency, near São Paulo (GRU) at 3,500 ft.

The code stayed up for about 15 minutes; we last saw it at 14:05 UTC, by which time the aircraft was at 5,300 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.
