ACARS is the Aircraft Communication Addressing & Reporting System.

This new publication is intended to be a "one Stop" reference when using ACARS to decode transmissions from Aircraft.The beauty of decoding ACARS is that it can be done for free! (Provided that a VHF receiver and computer are available!) The book explains how to use ACARSD, WACARS and others, with frequencies, message decodes, examples of messages, mode codes, message types, abbreviations used, SMI codes, Airport Identifiers, (both three & four letter), and Airline codes, (both two & three letter).

Reference is also made to the AirNav ACARS decoder, which unfortunately is not free!
