It’s been a while, and we have quite a few new followers! Yay! Welcome! ✈️
So here’s a quick tour of ACARS Drama, and what it is. You can always find all this info at acarsdrama.com — you should check it out, not least because we’re very proud of the design.
ACARS messages are transmitted in the clear over VHF radio waves between passing aircraft and ground stations. They’re usually intended for airline operations control rooms, not ATC.
Most of the messages you see on ACARS Drama are air-to-ground, because they’re more easily captured, though sometimes you might see ground-to-air replies.
ACARS was originally designed in the 1970s as a mechanism for sharing OFF/OUT times, but like all tech, it has grown in functionality, and is now used more like SMS over VHF radio.

Airplanista 🇺🇦Just got back from an educational EAA chapter meeting out at a small private grass strip (Daniels Field) 12NM north of Eugene. After an endless burger BBQ, we moved to a hangar where a member has just finished the build of a Zenith 750 Cruzer.
What always blows me away is that while they call these "kitplanes" i.e., made from a kit, there is always a million things you still have to figure out on your own.
I am absolutely sure now I could NEVER build my own airplane.
