Hey Guys,

I am new to DVA and I am stuck on something. Can my first flight report be sent trough ACARS or will it get rejected because I am yet to file my first flight report and receive my DVA callsign? When I first looked at "file an offline ACARS flight report" I was confused because I had no idea what I was supposed to upload as an XML or an SHA file.

Any help would be appreciated,
James Wilson

You should have gotten a temporary number or something that you log into ACARS with. Use that, fly your flight, file your flight, and after the flight has been approved, you will get your DVA ID.

The ACARS installer will also lookup the temporary code for you.

Cheers!
