Telephone?

Dunno. I was (pre 9/11) hanging in the cockpit door, chatting
to the PNF and the stewardess came up with a printout that looked
like a wide paper tape receipt that had wx and routing info on
it "this just came up for you guys".

Dunno how it was received -- obviously not a phone conversation,
but could be some kind of FAX like gizmo.
