so how should we teach our students to operate transponders? a couple of us at my flight school have difference of opinions. some say we should leave them on alt all the time, out of sight, out of mind so you wont forget to switch to alt... some say that's a bad habit and you can forget to squawk the right code if you always leave it on alt?

any thoughts?
