New AERAD Charts

How many of you Flt Ops/Flt Dispatch folks have had the same snags as the crews with these? Check R&N for a quick read.

Sensible answers only SVP

PS. I used old Aerad & Jepp side by side, haven't seen new format!

I think the new format is not the only strategic decision they have made - word has it that they are also going to re-adress their logistic operation; delivering manuals direct to customer aerodromes.....

I heard the same, reprise of the old AERAD service and to replicate that which Jepp set up in the UK back in the mid '90s out of Newbury.

Well - I have heard that there will be no 'middle man' at all - manuals directly delivered to aerodromes (apparantly due to new printing techniques)...... thus reducing cost for customer.....

".....what you mean you did an aircraft swop out of EDI and its now xxBCJ operating out of NCL??? That means the manuals are at the wrong airport!!..." Exactly.....

Bad news for the VistAir boys and girls!
