[ACARS] BA used for trooping?

[Ed Wilson]

Folks

Here is an interesting log. A BA B744 from Brize Norton to the Gulf. A 
trooping charter? BA don't normally get involved in such things! Also of 
interest is that although the first message shoes the frequency as 136.925 I 
logged the messages in 131.725!
