The provision for two-way communication with aircraft, via a digital data link, has long been considered a means of providing significant enhancements for safe and efficient flight operations. The data link processor (DLP) currently being tested will initially perform the ground-based data link processing functions necessary to provide appropriately equipped aircraft with pilot requested aviation weather data from a National Weather Data Base via the Mode Select Beacon System (Mode S). The weather data base will contain six products: surface observations (SA), terminal forecasts (FT), pilot reports (UA), wind and temperature aloft forecasts (FD), radar summaries (SD), and hazardous weather advisories. The DLP project transition plan presents those activities and the organizations that are responsible to effect the transition of the DLP into the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Technical Center. This plan identifies the functional interfaces, equipment description, testing, training, and logistics support necessary for an orderly transition at the FAA Technical Center.
