Class D / Class C precedence

Slightly OT I know but can someone advise me (since we are talking airspace) -
are transponders mandatory to carry and use in Class E airspace in the US?

Transponders are required for all registered aircraft, if they were manufactured
with an electrical system.

I don't know if anyone else caught that, but it was very funny. Thanks!

I second that chuckle! :-)

Thank you for the wealth of comment and information - it is relevant to a
response I am doing re the NAS here in Oz.

I think I am summarising correctly (cutting and pasting) as:

"Transponder required in Class A, B, and C, and all airspace above 10,000'
MSL (except below 2,500' AGL), and within the 30NM Mode C Veils of the Class
B airports listed in the appendix. But not otherwise required in Class E,
G, or D."
