Charts

No, Jepp continues to produce paper charts however, electronic charting is 'the next big thing', now. Your company most likely approached your Authority for approval to ise an EFB and replace paper with electronoc charts.

Electronic charts are data rich with features one would have difficulty trying to find on paper.

If leaving paper charts in favor of electronic is good, wait until 'ownship position' is applied to all charts and then through FAA NEXTGen and EASA SESAR we can do strategic route planning using real-time graphical weather combined with real time ATC traffic management. Its not a dream, its a reality and its very good. Stay tuned.
