Abstract: A method for automatically decoding aircraft Cockpit Voice Recorder (CVR) encoded data includes loading a definitions class and a decoder class into a memory via a driver class, loading configuration files into the memory via the definitions class, receiving from an aircraft CVR one or more hex files that include the CVR encoded data into the memory, generating via the decoder class and the configurations file one or more decoded objects based on the one or more hex files, respectively, and displaying the one or more decoded objects in a human readable format. A system to automatically decode aircraft CVR encoded data includes a user interface, a processor, and a memory having a computer program configured to generate one or more decoded objects based on one or more hex files of CVR encoded data, and to display the one or more decoded objects in a human readable format.
