Abstract This report discusses three experiments aimed at providing information pertinent to the Data Link Operational Experiments Program. Section 1. describes the evaluation of the WIDCOM, a visual display, and a voice synthesizer for providing ATC information to pilots in a GAT-I simulator. Section 2. is concerned with the evaluation of the intelligibility of the individual words in the vocabulary of the voice synthesizer. Section 3. describes an experiment to provide information as to possible coding formats for short message ATC commands and advisories. The three sections of the report are independent in content, having as a common denominator their applicability to the Data Link Program.
