The last and now discontinued Jepp VFR charts on paper date until end of 2013, before even SERA came into place - therefore I believe it is valid to think of these paper charts as wall decoration only now.

A good moving map software and a millions paper charts as backup are the modern replacement. For most VFR flight the million charts are sufficient, at least until the ground butt heads introduce more and more features only flyable by GPS. If they - and we - continue as we do, there will be no more VFR flying, but only GPS flying, anyways. To me it is shocking how many pilots actually look mainly on the iPad screen instead of out.
