2026-04-02 22:31 UTC· KMCO ?· AMERICAN AIRLINES INC· A321

AAL2126 (American Airlines) had departed KMCO on 2026-04-02. SkyMeter recorded a 7600 transponder transmission at 22:31 UTC. Code 7600 indicates a lost-comms / NORDO state; brief transmissions are often transient radio or transponder issues that resolve without crew action. Trace data at the event: 85 ft AGL, 0 kt GS, 0 fpm vertical. METAR at the time reported 7 kt wind, 6 kt crosswind component. Detection algorithm and known limitations: see SkyMeter methodology.

Automated analysis. Events shown on this page (such as go-around, unstable approach, or runway events) are heuristic classifications produced by algorithms from publicly broadcast ADS-B data. They are intended to surface flights of interest for further review — they are not findings of fact, and they do not determine pilot fault, regulatory compliance, or the cause of any occurrence. Coverage gaps and sensor noise can affect accuracy. Only the relevant civil aviation authority or accident investigation body can make official determinations.
