A pilot may be requested to squawk a given code by the air traffic controller via the radio, using a phrase such as " AIR CHINA 0335, squawk 0220". The pilot then selects the 0220 code on their transponder and the track on the radar screen of the air traffic controller will become correctly associated with their identity。航空管制员在无线电里用口令要求飞行员回应指定代码,例如“AIR CHINA 0335, squawk 0220”(意思是国航0335航班,回应0220)。随后飞行员把应答机的代码设置为0220,这样飞机的身份信息就能正确显示在航空管制的雷达屏幕上。
