ACARS – Flight Plan Data Report Page:<br />

This page can be accessed through line 1L on the ACARS<br />

index page; it is accessible only during preflight. The page<br />

can be used to report block fuel, taxi fuel, and maximum<br />

allowed takeoff weight (MATOW) to the ground station<br />

for loadsheet computation (in the simulator, the report will<br />

appear on Instructor > Situation > Human > Dispatcher<br />

on the ACARS telex screen). The report is sent when the<br />

SEND key at line 6R is pushed. The SEND key is available<br />

when data is entered on this page.<br />

Weights are indicated either by kilograms x 1000,<br />

or US pounds x 1000, depending on the aircraft model<br />

programming.<br />
