2. Airline Teletype System https://en. wikipedia
The airline industry began using teletypewriter technology in the early 1920s using radio stations located at 10 airfields in the United States
IATA standardised teletype message formats throughout the airline industry – named Type B, 1960s
2010s there have been initiatives in the industry to tackle the high cost of the existing Type B network by deploying secured peer-to-peer solutions, e.g. EDIfly

3. An example of a TTY message (IATA Type B format)
QD AAABBCC
to (IATA destination address) (QD priority=deferred, QU priority = urgent, QK priority = normal)
.XXXYYZZ
