Thanks Chris,

I remember trying std.conv.toString(), but I could have a hardware issue with
the Card. Will try it in the Morning.

Why the secrecy? No Secrecy, just didn't want to stray to far off topic.

The toString method was working, I found that the problem is with the card itself, structure alignment or lib error. I hate hardware interfacing :)

Looking at http://www.arinc.com/solutions/engineering.html it appears Arinc mostly works with the airline industry, defense etc. There's also a small section labeled "Space and Satellite Engineering" on that page but it looks like just satellites, not space missions. (i.e. nothing manned, and nothing beyond Earth orbit)
