Lots of small mistakes on Lido charts. So many airlines are using Jepps that mistakes and ommisions are usually found fairly quickly and corrections issued quickly. With a handful of airlines using Lido, mistakes take a while to find or correct.

Secondly, Jepp went to the briefing strip on the approach chart for a reason. Most of the important info is found right in one spot. That info is all over the place on Lidos and different on each plate.

There is a reason Jepp is more expensive-they are the best and consistant. The enroute charts are ok, but the airport/approach/SID/STAR charts are HORRIBLE--IMHO.

Good Luck
