Alphabet soup. On another forum, mostly professional airline pilots I recently saw this posting.
Having been a member for about 8 years and dealing with the issues it made perfect sense.

But... this is really an acronym / abbreviation pileup:

Reading some discussion group comments about a 737 crash in Rostov-on-Don, Russia this morning. Thought you'd like this:

If the recorder for the NG is the same as the CL and if it is FDAU-equipped but with no DMU then the QAR will collect the same data that is going to the SSFDR; if FDAU and DMU-equipped, a separate, more complex data frame with higher resolution and sample rates is possible but as some here will know, the QAR is not crash-protected like the CVR and FDR memory module cylinders

- And I was going to ask if the L-band ACARS was functioning with ADC via Inmarsat

The only clue I will provide: the NG means the 737-NG model
