Are you sure you havn't got the wrong take on this.
Any obsolete chart or plate can get into the hands of a wannabe.
We used to donate them to the local enthusiast shop at the airport, and what he did was up to him. Now every chart has obsolete in big letters on both sides, or like the plates, is torn in half. Any aviation mag can reproduce a plate (PPR) and guess what is quoted on the reproduction, a big disclaimer.
The skys are busy, have the right plates and charts, or be a flight safety risk, to yourself, and everyone else.
If you fly in Europe, and no I do not, but am a Europen Ops guy, you will see the point, OLD CHARTS/PLATES ARE A FLIGHT SAFETY RISK. Flight safety is the only 100% mandatory target in aviation.
Since 9/11 our (commercial airline insurance) premiums are sky high, and may have closed down a number of airlines, please do not ask us to expose ourselves any further
Keepsakes will be available, as ever, but let us decide what is and is not. For what ever reason, charts and plates are not.
No offence to the 99.9 percent of well briefed wannabes
You all fly safe, and well bried ya hear
