Interesting.  That flight number is wrong, by the way, TCX37K is the outbound LGW-FUE flight (which departed yesterday at 13:00) and there's no way it was in the air for 6 hours !

Most likely a passenger medical emergency (as 90% of 7700 squawks are) rather than something tech, as the aircraft was outbound again to DLM a couple of hours later.

I guess Dave (and many of us) would like to shoot the aircrew for entering the wrong flight ID - or not entering the right one. Well, perhaps not shoot them, but at least arrange typing lessons :-)

I got another 7700 today, EasyJet A320 G-TTOJ - EZY8615 - don't know what happened there, either.

Perhaps we should let the aircrew land first? Might be a bit messy otherwise
