Asked the pilot and he said they didn't have something turned on....don't remember what that was.




Mode C transponder.

Possible the Cessna didn't have one, but if he is ever flying within 30miles of Class B airspace he is required by the FAA to have a functioning Mode C transponder.

Mode C is the altitude portion of the IFF correct? I am unsure of FAA requirements for civilian aircraft
