ACARS origin
Thank you Selfin for the very detailed history of how the distributed ACARS messages came to be, and their format. It's great to have all that recorded in one place.
However my intent wasn't to attack whoever had transcribed them from the TV images, just to establish that they were, and what their arrival from that source implies. Your explanation doesn't alter the point I was working up to, which is that the original source is a mainstream TV broadcast. And hence that there is still no official release of this data, with any kind of legal responsibility to be accurate and complete.
So one must bear in mind there's at least a potential that what we have could be a fabrication.
