Jeppesen dispatch

[Socks and sandals]

I heard about that, I think...evidently it involved the DOD giving both companies a no-notice "practical test" to see what they could produce on short notice, and Jeppesen didn't pass. I don't know all the details though.

Any idea what the test was?

Interesting, surprised to hear that since Jepps already does a bunch of DOD plans.

Did Jeppesen assume they were referring to European swallows? Gotta ask the right questions, man!

Luckily I studied both....get the book.."Swallows for Dummies".

All I really know about them is that they do contract dispatch work and that you would not be in CASS. That was the last I had heard anyway. You might try emailing Jeremy.vincent@jeppesen.com to see if he can offer more info.
