NavTech Charts
I try not not vent here, but...

I've just logged in to NavTech to try to download some charts for an upcoming sim. I have to say that the NavTech website makes crewdirect on roster day look super fast, and iJouney look streamlined!

What was wrong with Jeppeson, and did anyone try this before we bought it???

Also known to some as AERADs. I'm certain the majority of us who have used both will agree with me that the NAVTECs are a step forward.

Sorry but I hate them.

Jepp charts in my opinion are much better

I've only had a brief look but the Natvtech charts look a lot less cluttered than Jepps, the enroute charts as well.

Does anyone know how to print more than one at a time? In the Jepp site you could select a few charts and have them all print as one PDF.

NTC gives username and password.

I cannot work out how to print/save multiple pages in one pdf nor to create a routepack as per jeppesen. There's progress for you!!
