Especially the last point is quite easily done on an EFB Class II. In the simulator we do not even carry a paper QRH anymore, since not the complete fleet is yet changed over to Class II we still have to carry paper QRHs on the real airplanes, but do not use them anymore.

EFB non-normal checklists are much easier to use, especially those that send one to other checklists and use decision step point procedures since they are hyperlinked and a touch of the finger sends one to the correct procedure step.

But then, paper charts and manuals have been a thing of the past for over 10 years now over here, no need for an iPad to make that happen, although most of us carry our private iPad.
