Fans 1/A Aircraft on NAT Will Need To 'Confirm' Route
Message acts as a means to check the downlinked route from the aircraft against the route held in the flight data processing system.

Oceanic air traffic centers in Europe will start issuing a “CONFIRM ASSIGNED ROUTE” CPDLC uplink message next month to all Fans 1/A aircraft on the North Atlantic Tracks (NAT) as a means to check the downlinked route from the aircraft against the route held in the flight data processing system. This datalink message provides the flight crew with a “SEND” prompt, which downlinks (via CPDLC) the active route from the aircraft’s FMS to ATC.
