The satcom has got to be pointing up.... We're lucky we got a message in the dive at 2014z (if that's what happened.)
Either we were lucky, or should one conlcude it still *was* pointing up when handing out this msg?
While I have been following both threads in detail and know it ws mentioned, but I do not recall exactly whether the transmission method of ACARS msgs had been firmly established?
EDIT: I see this has been at least partially answered while I typed. Ignore my question.
