CPDLC-DCL (Controller Pilot Data Link Communications-Departure Clearance) began in 2016 with 62 Towers in the United States. The application of this procedure is to utilize equipment different from existing ACARS PDCs or ACARS-DCLs. The purpose of this study is to provide information and understanding of CPDLC-DCL operation methods. Also, B747-8 aircraft considered operational cases related to departure procedures at U.S. airports. This procedure is currently not mandatory but will be mandatory in the future. The Flight Crew Procedures for CPDLC-DCL, as an appendix, will be a useful resource for B747-8 pilots.

VDL Mode 2 is one of air-to-ground VHF digital data link technologies. The VDL Mode 2 system is designed to be an air-to-ground subnetwork of the Aeronautical Telecommunication Network (ATN) using the AM(R)S band and it is organized according to the Open System Interconnection (OSI) model (defined by ISO). It can be used in ATS Applications especially for ATC communication such as CPDLC and ADS as well. And It is expected VDL Mode 2 replaces ACARS(Aircraft Communications Addressing and Reporting System) which has broadly been used for over 20 years. This paper presents the result of design of operational test equipments for the validation of VDL Mode 2 system under development in KARI.
