My Areas of Interest

I'm not a regular Wikipedia contributor -- rather in bursts when I get some free time. During my active periods, I monitor and contribute to the areas below.

Aeronautical Data Links

My contributions

• Substantially revised the ACARS article.

My To Do List

• There probably should be a parent article title "Aeronautical Data Links". It would refer to ACARS and ATN at the least.
• Add content (perhaps a new article) on VHF digital link (VDL) comparing the various modes.
• Add references to the altitude page for the various deinitions I added.

Avionics Related Standards

My contributions

• Created DO-248B and RTCA Standards.
• Created DO-232
• Created DO-219
• Created DO-212
• Created DO-205
• Created DO-242A

My To Do List

• Eventually every RTCA document should have its own page with an outline of contents.

My current projects

• I see a need to an article on Aeronautical telecommunications network. Many of the RTCA standards I have been researching deal with this topic. I should soon have enough information to produce a draft article.
• Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast has recently had a lot of good material added. This article could be brought up to featured article status. I think I'll tackle that before writing the new ATN article.
