Generally 5 minutes prior to departure, Im pretty time compressed between last minute paperwork, getting the final data entered into the FMS and if the PDC doesn't actually arrive, it just cluster-screws teh operation.

Eh... tower question. My exposure to ACARS was jumpseating and that was several years ago. Is this isolated to a single airport or do you experience it all over ??? Do other pilots on here have the same problem ??? If it's a single airport let me know which one, I know someone that can look into it. If the problem is widespread then it may just be an FAA equipment issuse.
