good question..

marsk

The technology is clearly there so if cost is not an issue, what is preventing airline flight crews from having access to these data?
fresh sat charts in the cockpit ...

well, honestly have no idea??

you would not even need any big expensive "certified" installations, just take your lap top in the cockpit, most modern airliners have high speed data internet access via satcom, here you go...

beats me why it's obviously not yet the norm..??

but I am sure, nobody will leave home without it a couple of years from now..
