The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is currently embarking on programs, such as the Terminal Doppler Weather Radar (TDWR) and Integrated Terminal Weather System (ITWS), that will significantly improve the aviation weather information in the terminal area. This report describes work performed in 1995 to provide direct access to terminal weather information via an existing data link known as ACARS (Aircraft, Communications Addressing and Reporting System). More than 4000 aircraft operate in the United States with ACARS equipment. During 1995, five Lincoln-operated testbeds provided near real-time terminal weather information to pilots of ACARS-equipped aircraft in both text and character graphics formats. Section 2 of the report describes the TWIP message formats, Section 3 discusses the 1995 operational demonstration, and Section 4 present the TWIP software design. Section 5 provides case analyses from the 1995 demonstration, Section 6 discusses future work, and Section 7 is the summary.
