The twitter user is an actual commercial pilot, and ACARS messages do look like that. Not sure what's up with SKW2438/SKY2438 but otherwise it seems legit. I think faking it would be harder than actually doing this.

Edit: Here's a picture of a much longer message in a more professional, non furry rp context:

Considering pilots shitpost on guard to the extent that actual emergencies threatening lives are literally not able to be heard… I don’t doubt this lol

Turn off bleed air and vent the cabin. The suction cup should release if the pressure is low enough.

Pretty sure ACARS doesn't include [X is typing] messages

That is a good point.

Except that that might explain the slightly different alias on that line. Maybe it's a message just like the rest, sent for the sake of the meme, and the alias just happened to get typed incorrectly...
