Wikisita Main 4 years, 6 months agoJe viens de lire un ouvrage intéressant, un roman de Eric Reinhardt, « comédies françaises ». Sans doute certains en ont entendu parler. Il relate comment la France était en avance dans le domaine des réseaux, et aurait pu prendre le lead dans la création d’Internet. Le réseau Cyclades exploitait la notion de datagramme, tandis que Transpac u…[Read more]

You forgot to mention the well known QBH and QNL respectives off line codes for Beyrouth (created when I was nominated DR for Middle East based in Neuilly) and Neuilly( where was based the Africa regional DR office after Dakar and before Johanesburg -
Hello Jean-Pierre,
Yes interesting! The creation of these codes (of course I know them but did not think to mention their story) has a lot of stories attached to them. It has been easier for SITA to obtain the creation of 3 letter codes than to be allocated the exclusive use of a two alpha code. -
As commented by Jean-Pierre, sometimes codes have a story to tell us. The code for Geneva is GVA. Voltaire, the French philosopher lived in this city in the 18th century; but after some time he had to leave for Ferney-Voltaire, because he as a fan of theater he had plays frequently performed at his mansion , Les Délices in Geneva. But at that…[Read more]

Votre intéressant article à ce sujet m’a ramené quelques souvenirs en mémoire.
– Lorsque je suis entré à la SITA nous utilisions les codes ICAO exclusivement. Ce n’est que vers 1955 que nous avons adopté les codes IATA.

Intéressant. Merci. Oui Ruedi m’avait mentionné que les codes ICAO étaient utilisés avant les codes IATA: était-ce le cas pour les codes compagnie aussi bien que pour les codes aéroports?
C’est Gilles Roy qui m’a fait découvrir les BSP et expliqué pour la 1ère fois leur principe de fonctionnement. Et cette connaissance m’a été utile lorsque j’…[Read more] -
Oui les codes ICAO étaient utilisés en totalité aussi bien pour les villes et aéroports que pour les compagnies. Ce qui était intéressant à cette époque où les liaisons radio étaient plutôt aléatoires car non protégées c’est que le code ICAO avec ses 4 lettres indiquait le pays ou tout au moins la région concernée ce qui permettait une vérificatio…[Read more]

Il y a également eu un code Z pour les liaisons teletypes mais les communications étant plus sécurisées ce code n’a pratiquement pas été utilisé du moins à la SITA;
-
Les premières liaisons radio, et ce pendant plus d’un demi siècle, ont eu lieu en graphie pure c’est à dire l’émission d’une fréquence radio que l’on pouvait à l’aide d’un manipulateur mettre en route ou interrompre très rapidement. Cela donnait à la réception par battement produit avec un oscillateur local (BFO) un son audible. Pour utiliser…[Read more]
