conspicuity code

An SSR (secondary surveillance radar) Mode A code 7000. It should be selected with due care because of the proximity of some of the special-purpose codes. In some airspace, it should be used together with Mode C when operating above flight level 100, unless an allocated or a special-purpose code is already being used.
