Data Communication Basics
Voice communication frequencies between pilots and air traffic control (ATC) are becoming
increasingly congested and will not be able to accommodate the projected increase in air traffic
demand. Use of data communications (Data Comm) to supplement some routine voice
communications will increase efficiency, capacity, and safety.
Data Comm Overview
Provides data communications between the
cockpit and controllers to supplement voice
communications
Air traffic control (ATC) clearances, instructions,
traffic flow management, flight crew requests
and reports
Provides direct link between ground automation
and flight deck avionics
Transformational program critical to the
success of NextGen operations
Provides infrastructure supporting other
NextGen programs and operational
improvements
Enables efficiencies not possible using current
voice system

Departure Clearance
CPDLC DCL
• Cleared as filed
• Flight Crew logs into airport at any
time (Session established when next
step occurs)
• As Clearance Delivery approves
flight plan, a session will be
established and the clearance is sent
directly to flight deck
• For operators with a Flight
Operations Center (FOC), dispatch
copy of clearance and pilot response
is sent to FOC.
• Revisions to clearance
• Revised clearances are sent directly
to flight deck.
• Able to be loaded by crew.
• For operators with an FOC, dispatch
copy of all revisions and pilot
responses are also sent to FOC.
Pre-departure Clearance (PDC)
• Flight cleared as filed
• PDC is delivered to operator via
service provider (e.g., ARINC/SITA)
• If operator has an FOC, then FOC
may be responsible for getting the
clearance to the flight deck
• Revisions to clearance
• Prior to P-30, PDC is not sent and
clearance is delivered via voice.
• After P-30, PDC is cancelled and
new clearance is delivered via
voice.

Operator Steps to Participation
• Determine equipage
• FANS 1/A and VDL Mode 2 or VDL Mode 0 (Plain Old ACARS) required
• Establish or Update OpSpec A056 for Part 121, 135, 91K or OpSpec A003 for Part 129
• No OpSpec or LOA required for Part 91 operators for domestic CPDLC
• File appropriate equipment code in field 10a of ICAO flight plan
• J3 for FANS 1/A over VDL Mode 0
• J4 for FANS 1/A over VDL Mode 2
• File desired DAT/ code in field 18 of ICAO flight plan
• Recommend DAT/1FANSP2PDC for DCL flights (can include other DAT/ characters as required)
• This establishes the desired hierarchy for receiving departure clearance (e.g. DCL, then PDC, then
voice)
• Must include DAT/ in order to get CPDLC DCL
• Distribute flight crew materials
• Updates to SOP and required training bulletins
• Begin use of the CPDLC DCL service.
• Rolling out to 56 US sites in 2016
• Optional: Submit entry into FAA subscriber database to receive dispatch copies
• Generally coordinated through flight planning service provider
