Hi I asked this hopefully not to dump question in the WF forum days ago.

I am a bit confused...

I use PSX connected to XP11.

What do I have to implement for getting CPDLC and PDC online flying using VATSIM ? Do I have to use the great HoppieĀ“s MCDU anymore for this ?

Thx in advance.

In other words, did somebody else build an ACARS addon for PSX that does CPDLC and PDC on the Hoppie backend?

Hi Steffen,

if I'm not totally wrong, there are CPDLC and PDC options on the LSK in the PSX BACARS implementation. Haven't tried them yet, though...

Thx to both of you,

yes Markus, I know this but the question is: Is this connected to VATSIM ATC ? I think yes but on normal days using VATSIM there are rare controller who uses CPDLC, I had no chance to test..

May be at the first flight of WF we will know...

There is not yet a VATSIM CPDLC implementation as far as I know. Almost everything out there routes through my server, even if the clients on either end are not of my hand. So if you find anything, there's a good chance it will work.

so we will use your famous stuff and will think on you with every single click. :-)))

VATPAC has CPDLC integrated into their ATC Client (Euroscope TAAATSMod)... linked to Hoppie's network.

I don't know how widely it is used but it is there.
