I'm confused, did the transponder quit working just because the 24 month
checkup is up??? If it was working, who's going to know that it hasn't been checked? You can fly it to a place to get it checked out/signed off.

Going over the logs once again last night (about the 4th time...) it suddenly hits me - there's no record of a 24 month transponder check!!! Grounded!!! Of all the checks we did on the pre-purchase, that one slipped by. Shame on me. And it is one heckuva beeeyoutiful day out there. *sigh* You grounded your plane on a VFR day because the transponder hasn't been checked in 24 months? Turn the stupid thing off and go fly!

Unless the original poster has some new device that disables his transponder at 24 months, he can fly it forever, and who the heck would know? And, unless he's flying IFR, who the heck would care? Trust me -- ATC will let you know if your transponder isn't working. (Heck, they got to know us well, before we finally replaced ours. "Oh, it's you guys again. Third digit still not working?") -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination"
