Quote: "In some countries the Jepp plate is realy only in the book because nobody told Jepp that the beacon was stolen 10 years ago"
Over the years Jeppesen has been advised by various people, including me, of defective or missing navaids, wrong co-ordinates, etc. They know full well of these problems but refuse to correct their published information or even to add a warning to the incorrect information. Their policy is that they will not correct their information until they receive an official amendment from a country's civil aviation agency. In the meantime they continue to knowingly publish false information that could cause a crash. Is that what is called being a good corporate citizen?
Newcomers to Africa should always ensure that their first arrival and approach at any location is done in VMC, preferably with an experienced skipper as part of line indoc. Do the approach, cross-checking your GPS and the traditional aids, while noting the position of local obstacles and terrain. When you then have to do the approach in IMC ensure that both your GPS and the traditional aids agree with what you saw during your first approach in VMC. If they do not, then do not continue the approach and ensure that you are at a safe altitude until the matter has been sorted out or else divert.
