I think I can see where you're going with this, but please please please don't even suggest a "pre-recorded message" even for research. Even if it might be legal, we controllers need to speak to the pilot, not his answering-machine.

------------------
Once more unto the breach, Dear Friends...

Why not we have to listen to your answering machines!.

(Said in jest,,,,, or 'Info J,,,uliet'!).

The way it's going with 'Mode S' being hawked around by Euro-Control they may even like the idea.

God help us!.

Did you ever see the SkyForce Locator product? Pager-size. It took a GPS input and turned it into a single line of ASCII like "5 miles North East of Corby". I don't know what happened to that family of products when they were bought out by Bendix-King.
