e-charts are certainly more in keeping with membership in the Magenta Line Club.
Gotta disagree there, AT. I have just started using an electronic charting app for my area of op (Non Jepp) and it is great. It's a scanned version of the paper. Easier to use, especially with "own-ship" position displayed. I can zoom in, instantly change to a higher-res terminal chart with two taps. The Enroute Hi chart is 65mb (3000nm x 2000nm) and great resolution. The USA obviously has far more data on charts, but if those idiots at Goooogle would allow app access to the SD card, storage wouldn't be a problem for scanned paper charts.

And I am old-school!
