With the production of standardised aeronautical charts in its Airfield Guide series, DFS Deutsche Flugsicherung GmbH set the stage for more harmonisation in Europe. Now the company has gone a step further and is changing the transponder code to A/C 7000 for VFR traffic. Squawk A/C 7000 will then be selected by VFR flights in most European countries. Up until now, the codes A/C 0021 and A/C 0022 have been used in Germany.

On 15 March 2007, the VFR transponder code will be switched to A/C 7000 in German airspace, just in time for the start of the 2007 flying season. The new VFR transponder code must then also be selected in the TMZ (Transponder Mandatory Zone).

The Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association of Germany showed its support for the move by DFS, commenting that changing the code to A/C 7000 would greatly promote the Single European Sky concept to harmonise air traffic control procedures in Europe. In addition, it would make cross-border VFR flights more straightforward.

The German Aero Club (DAeC) also praised the introduction of the new transponder code as the simplified air traffic regulations would boost the cross-border VFR traffic in Europe.

Frank Brenner, Director Operations of the business unit Control Centre at DFS, stated that the general regulations on the mandatory carriage of transponders would remain in place. Apart from appearing in all relevant publications, the new VFR transponder code would also be published in the new ICAO chart and in the ICAO glider chart. These charts will be released on 15 March 2007.
