Actually I'd be interested to see if they cleared the USAF Officer.

I don't suppose anyone knows?

I'm sure someone does ... but I'm even more sure they won't be telling.

Heh, good point

I emailed the GMAIL.COM address in this ACARS transmission and had confirmation back this morning. Air New Zealand have setup a function to send emails via ACARS and it seems to work very nicely.

Cool stuff and probably quite useful for the crew.
