ACARS ping arcs
I’m becoming more sceptical of the reliability of the ping arcs and the one piece of information which would give me confidence is the calculated arc of the 0107L ACARS transmission compared to the known ADSB track.
My understanding is that the subsequent transmissions were handshake pings only and yet these are the only transmissions from which I’ve seen published ping arcs.
An arc from the 0107 transmission would verify the calculation method of the later arcs IF it perfectly intersected the known ADSB track at that time.
So my question is; has anybody seen that verification ?
If so, could you provide a link to a reliable source.
