The Learning Never Stops!

Aviation is complicated business, and it can be deadly if not undertaken with the right mindset. Our goal here at Code 7700 is to prepare you to avoid the day you will need to Squawk 7700, but if that day ever comes, to prepare you to deal with it competently.

Get ready for another game changer later this year: North Atlantic (NAT) Oceanic Clearance Removal (OCR) implementation.
