History

ARINC was incorporated in 1929 as Aeronautical Radio, Incorporated. It was chartered by the

Federal Radio Commission The Federal Radio Commission (FRC) was a government agency that regulated United States radio communication from its creation in 1927 until 1934, when it was succeeded by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). The FRC was established by t ...

until the sale to The Carlyle Group in October 2007. Not much later ARINC took on the responsibility for all ground-based, aeronautical radio stations and for ensuring station compliance with

(FRC) rules and regulations. Using this as a base technology, ARINC expanded its contributions to transport communications as well as continuing to support the commercial aviation industry and U.S. military. ARINC also developed the standards for the trays and boxes used to hold standard line-replaceable units (like radios) in aircraft. This subsequently allowed electronics to be rapidly replaced without complex fasteners or test equipment. In 1978 ARINC introduced ACARS (

The protocol was de ...
