This morning, I got the call from our local FSDO about the upcoming
ramp inspection for my Experimental/Exhibition/Racing glider (see
other threads). At the end of our discussion, I asked him if he knew
of the new discrete transponder code for gliders and whether it was
being implemented locally in Arizona. I know this isn't their
department, but thought I might as well ask. In any event, no-one at
the Scottsdale FSDO has heard about it.

Tucson TRACON has previously issued Tucson Soaring Club the discrete
code of 0400 and we will be following up with them to see if we should
keep it or change to 1201.
