SERA.13020(b) SSR transponder failure when the carriage of a
functioning transponder is mandatory
ED Decision 2016/023/R
TRANSPONDER FAILURE BEFORE DEPARTURE
In case of a transponder failure which is detected before departure from an aerodrome where it is not practicable to effect a repair, the aircraft concerned should be permitted to proceed, as directly as possible, to the nearest suitable aerodrome where repair can be made. When granting clearance to such aircraft, ATC should take into consideration the existing or anticipated traffic situation and may have to modify the time of departure, flight level or route of the intended flight. Subsequent adjustments may become necessary during the course of the flight. Note that Article 4(4) of Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1207/2011[19] also addresses this issue.
