No you wouldn't have to "fake" the primary radar return. Civilian Air Traffic Controllers in the US, Australia and numerous other countries only have Secondary Radar. It used to be the running joke when I learnt to fly.
"How is a Cessna 150 like a Stealth Fighter?"
"With the transponder turned off.. neither will show on secondary radar" The US Air Force, NORAD and NATO still maintain primary Air Defense radar. Especially in the US, a business jet or airliner without a functioning and active transponder is likely to get intercepted by a F-16 and escorted to land at the nearest suitable airport. |
