A Data Muling service is a method for transferring data between locations that lack a continuous, end-to-end network connection.
The core concept relies on a specialized mobile node, called a data mule, that physically carries data and acts as a mobile relay.
This work aims to analyse the viability of having aircraft as data mules, in a scenario where aircraft may be interconnected by some omnidirectional or directional links.
