What happened

At 19:40 UTC on 9 November 2026, N9849H, an Aviones Colombia R182, began transmitting transponder code 7600, lost communications (nordo), near Colorado Springs (COS) at 4,900 ft.

The code stayed up for about 10 minutes; we last saw it at 19:50 UTC, by which time the aircraft was at 11,000 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.
