Jepp plates are now on iPad

[Air Pirate]

Chew on this thought...

I'd bet money that the likelihood of an iPad/JeppTC failure is much, much lower than the chances of a flight crew flying around with out of date paper charts.

:yeahthat: ...or finding out that it's no longer in the binder in the 1st place...Oops!

Careful with Foreflight if you don't have paper back-ups. Their EULA states that it is "intended solely for informational and entertainment purposes". A few very experienced pilots on another website have contact them as to whether or not that means they intend the software to be used as the primary means of navigation. The answer is always vague and indirect.

Here's an excerpt:

Nowhere does it say you have to have an official stamped certified approach plate. You can print plates online so why wouldn't you be able to carry the same copy electronically?

Because if you were ever to hit the tall tower, ForeFlight's lawyers would say "look at our EULA...you don't have a case against us...I'm going to the bar with Sam Waterson now"
