[ACARS] UAL B777s now getting Westbound ACARS clearances

Sun, 8 Sep 2002 18:00:47 +0200

Ed,

You mention the typical B777 check brick in ADS reports. Do you mean the VHF
ADS reports or the ones that they transmit during oceanic transit?

I am wondering how to receive their oceanic ADS reports, is that done by
sattelite or HF that you know ?

Kind regards
