It's not a joke, I just thought it was funny.
Daniel Van KirkHOST
44:50

ACARS
Daniel Van KirkHOST

... it's planes, but the acronym is ACARS.
SuveerGUEST

That's what Nansen, the passenger, experienced.
SuveerGUEST
51:57
Say when the World Cup was going on and we were up in the air, So when India won the World Cup, we got like an ACARS message from the company saying that, you know, India has won the World Cup, make an announcement.
SuveerGUEST
52:10
So those are small things where you can enhance the passenger experience.
SuveerGUEST
52:14
Also, Cricket matches, you can ask the ATC, okay, sir, do you have this score? They're sitting on ground.

RobinHOST

Core elements of the theories, the first and most credible theory, is deliberate pilot action.
RobinHOST
3:10
The sequence of events, the deliberate disabling of transponder and ACARS, the sharp turn, the seven-hour flight into one of the most remote places on Earth, is most consistent with intentional action by someone with flight knowledge.
RobinHOST
3:25
The most widely held theory among aviation experts is that the captain, Zahari Amat Shah, deliberately diverted the aircraft and ultimately crashed it.
RobinHOST
3:34
either in a suicidal act or for reasons that have never been established evidence cited for this theory include the flight simulation found on the harry's home computer that showed a route remarkably similar to m h three seventies final path south into the indian ocean investigators examined his background financial affairs training and mental health and found no clear motive but the absence of an identified motive does not rule out the explanation The second theory is a sudden depressurization event, a catastrophic failure that incapacitated everyone on board before the transponder was switched off, after which the plane flew on autopilot until it ran out of fuel.

proxying for.
John BurwellGUEST
48:34
I've got one of my remote nodes has ACARS Explorer, I think it's called.
John BurwellGUEST
48:42
No, ACARS Hub, which gathers ADS-B transmissions from my ADS-B receivers and pairs it up with the ACARS messages that are big nerdy stuff.
John BurwellGUEST
48:53
I get to watch planes fly around and pick up all of that stuff.
John BurwellGUEST
48:57
And I have that accessible through 44Net Connect because it's up in Canada where Although it's fiber optic internet, I never know what's going on with that.

Jason RabinowitzHOST
23:38
I don't know about this one
Ian PetchenikHOST
23:39
... about the safety and security of ACARS and CPDLC.
Jason RabinowitzHOST
23:43
Yeah.
Ian PetchenikHOST
23:44
Tell me more.
Jason RabinowitzHOST
24:13
Anyone with a radio scanner can listen.
Jason RabinowitzHOST
24:15
Anyone with the proper equipment can transmit, and transmit in the place of actual air traffic control.
Jason RabinowitzHOST
24:22
CPDLC and ACARS are a whole other thing, but the problem here is this is not just US airline bad, slow, FAA bad, slow.
Jason RabinowitzHOST
24:31
This is a global thing with virtually, I'd imagine, every single commercial aircraft, short of military aircraft.
MikeHOST
35:20
Well, and things have changed, too, like with the American.
MikeHOST
35:22
Why did it make the news? Well, now you send an ACARS message and that stuff's not private.
MikeHOST
35:26
People can the public can get access to that through some websites and apps and things like that.
MikeHOST
35:31
Back when you were doing this, I don't think that had been in public yet.
MikeHOST
35:35
I don't know.
MikeHOST
35:35
I'm not smart enough to figure out how all that works.
MikeHOST
35:38
I just know that when I send a message to the company now through the ACARS, meaning I type it and I send it through the computer, there's an app out there that can read that.
MikeHOST
35:48
And so be wary of what you're putting in there now.
NickHOST
8:58
I mean, kind of.
NickHOST
9:00
Honestly, it's all generally done via ACARS.
NickHOST
9:02
It's automated to the airplane with final figures and everything.
MirandaHOST
9:05
Fancy.
Craig FisherGUEST
36:34
And he had obviously got the same information as everybody else.
Craig FisherGUEST
36:39
But through the ACARS system, which is an in-flight sort of fax system, they get little teletype messages through from the company.
Craig FisherGUEST
36:47
and they said that there was this security alert and make the cabin safe.
Craig FisherGUEST
36:52
So he sent one of his crew members down to the back of the plane to pick the five biggest blokes that they could see.
DougHOST
47:59
The last thing I want to talk about is how do we write things up? We can either do it pre-flight, we can do it in-flight, or we can do it after we land.
DougHOST
48:06
We do it on ACARS.
DougHOST
48:08
We can do it, type it in.
DougHOST
48:10
But now we have the ability on the iPad on our pilot app where we get our flight plan and we get information about the loads.
