New MATS1 (22nd Nov)

[timelapse]

It might just be me being stupid...

But is the new MATS1 that's coming out on Thursday a little stupidly organised, with ALL the pages reset to the new date. Which makes it impossible to amend, and to know what's changed?

a little stupidly organised

Nice to see they're not breaking with tradition then!:D

Surely that's because it's a completely new edition, and not just another amendment.

Or am I missing something?:confused:

On the current version

The pages have dates some going back to 2002 which is the earliest I can see, but on the new one's List of Effective Pages, all the dates are the same, 22nd November :eek:

edit: I see why now.. the current version is the Third Edition

The one coming out on Thursday is a brand new edition totally so everything is reset! Guess we'll just have to read through every page to find the new changes!! ;)

I think that's the idea of the Explanatory Note.

There was a question on here a while ago asking about the A380 vortex. In the UK, a new vortex category "Super" has been created.

So have all the vortex tables been updated? No!

After the tables there are two pages of text and then at the very end a table for A380 vortex on approach.

Why not just add the category to all the tables?
