It's against OzRunways commercial interests to admit to their customers with iPad mini's that it doesn't meet ICAO requirements....can't blame them.

All this "OzRunways CASA approved" talk now could lead them to a law suit, if someone with a mini gets done in court.
WTF has ICAO got to do with flying around in Australia?

I've had this argument with a few people, don't let that pretty image on casas website with the tick and crosses fool you, that isn't a law. CAO 82.0 says:

it uses a screen which displays data in a size and form that is at least as easily read and used as it would be in a paper document for which the EFB would be a substitute;
I know this is just as 'grey area' as all the other regs but it's not for ozrunways to stipulate a size or for you to sue them if you get caught with a mini, it's for you to argue to casa or a judge that the mini displays the data in a "size and form that is at least as easily read as the paper equivalent"
