Transponders are a method air traffic controllers use to identify each aircraft within its flight path. The controller will tell the pilot to switch to a certain frequency, thus giving the plane a unique signal. Each plane has to be able to comply to this order so the ATC can guide him on flight path for landing, take-off, taxiing, etc. I suspect that what will become of this incident is that planes will be equipped with a frequency separate from all others that could not be manipulated, and is on all the time. However, even that one could possibly be disabled by pulling a circuit breaker. Bottom line is, I reckon if you want to steal a plane, I reckon you can do it. What is so very worrisome is that with the climate of drastically reducing all Government regulations, this incident has provided any terrorist organization with an excellent blueprint on how to steal a plane and crash it wherever they want. BTW, what most of us fail to realize is that the area this plane headed is absolutely most remote section of the world with some of the roughest weather.

After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
