The memory aid I was taught went like "Hi Jack, can't talk now, I'm on fire" for 7500, 7600 and 7700. The "I'm on fire" part sometimes got substituted out with other emergencies, but I found the fire one most memorable. Only problem with mine was when I was just starting flying, I thought 7700 was solely restricted to fires, until someone told me otherwise. just came across this. great way to remember them.

My instructor taught me "ICE" for transponder codes. In Case of an Emergency - ICE I - Interference (someone interferes that is Hijack - 7500 C - Communications problems - 7600 E - Emergency - 7700 I guess it is important to use what works for you. Cheers Al Great blog with lots of useful and interesting information thanks.

In Case of an Emergency – ICE
I – Interference (someone interferes that is Hijack – 7500
C – Communications problems – 7600
E – Emergency – 7700

I guess it is important to use what works for you.

You're memory aid is sure a lot better than my method. "75 guys hijack an airplane, then they destroy the radios, now you've got a real emergency!" *shrugs* Always a good reminder.
