Module 5. Digital techniques / Electronic instrument systems

ACARS is an acronym for

  • Aircraft Communicating Addressing and Reporting System.
  • Airborne Communicating Addressing and Reporting System.
  • Airframe Communicating Addressing and Reporting System.

Explanation

ACARS stands for Aircraft Communications Addressing and Reporting System, a datalink that exchanges short messages between the aircraft and ground stations. The first word is Aircraft, not airframe or airborne, which distinguishes the correct expansion from the distractors.

MridulDev asking:

doesn't ACARS stand for, "ARINC communications addressing and reporting system" . correct me if i'm wrong.
