That's right! ACARS has some very interesting information in it.
Just a few things of notable interest:
- realtime routing plans/changes
- OOOI (out/off/on/in) revealing when an airframe takes off or lands
- departure, destination airports and gates
- weather and other flight bag data
- airline / flight crew communication
- flight crew / airport communication
- positional data (which can be useful to augment or verify when ADS-B data is not available)
It has been a time consuming process to do research on some of the extended text (see: https://github.com/airframesio/acars-message-documentation https://github.com/airframesio/acars-message-documentation), but we hope to keep at it.
