A method for minimizing datalink message propagation time comprises determining whether a datalink TPDU ready for transmission requires an acknowledgement; transmitting the TPDU, starting a transport retry timer, and setting a transmission count to one, when acknowledgement is required; determining whether acknowledgement is received after transmitting the TPDU; determining whether the retry timer has expired if acknowledgement not received; determining whether a hold mode is in effect when the retry timer has expired; determining whether a transport inactivity timer has expired when the hold mode is in effect; determining whether the hold mode is still in effect when the inactivity timer has not expired; when the hold mode is no longer in effect, incrementing the transmission count by one; and retransmitting the datalink TPDU and restarting the retry timer, when the transmission count is less than a predetermined maximum value and the inactivity timer has not expired.
