Mode-S transponder required in Sweden for all IFR flights.

AIP Sweden GEN 1.5 revision 10 August 2023. The biggest difference is that a Mode-S transponder is now required for all IFR flights.

For those aircraft that have an old Bendix/King KT76A the Trig Avionics TT31 Mode-S transponder is in most cases Plug-Play with the existing mounting tray and harness.

For those aircraft that have any other type of Mode-A/C transponder we recommend the Garmin GTX335 Mode-S transponder that when paired with an approved GPS position source such as a Garmin GTN650/Xi also enables ADS-B out. The optional Garmin GAE12 altitude encoder that mounts onto the GTX335 backplate is highly recommended and any old  gillham code blind encoders can be removed.
