Perth ACARS permanently down

[Rhys Xanthis]

Unfortunately the Perth ACARS website is now permanently offline.

I will quote from the website (http://perthacars.no-ip.org:8050/acars/):

**LIVE FEED NOW PERMANENTLY OFFLINE**

Unfortunately after a continuous live ACARS feed since August 2001 I had a piece of hardware in my ACARS set up fail on October 12th 2008.

The piece of hardware can't be fixed and is no longer available so the hardware issue along with a lack of time due to family and work means that the live ACARS feed has now ceased.

Historical data can still be obtained by clicking here

Such a pity, was a great service to use. I was just going to set up an email watch for 744F's for the Red Bull Air Race.

Disappointing to say the least!
