According to the Avionics Magazine the FAA is to release their long-awaited Departure Clearance (DCL) Air Traffic Control (ATC) tower system to help facilitate aircraft communication. As of the ending of the year 2016 this long-awaited data communication system will be installed into 56 airport towers  The  device has been tested and installed to see its production in action on some aircrafts as of , Sept. 27, the agency demonstrated the use of Data Comm on a UPS Boeing 767 and United Airlines Boeing 777 at Washington Dulles International Airport in Virginia.” One of the great applications the Data Comm offers is its ability to send “text messages” throughout the pilots and controllers. Many times, voice communication can be miss leading when not heard correctly either dispatching or receiving incoming airplanes.
