The helicopter transmitted a Squawk 7700 emergency signal while flying over the sea. As of 12:35 GMT, the aircraft was over Omani territory and heading northwest. The 7700 code is a universal transponder signal used by pilots to indicate a general emergency on board. However, it does not necessarily indicate an immediate threat of disaster.
