No height restrictions at Limes because this is the ILS07L chart. Jepp combine the ILS and LOC approaches, Navtech separate them. If you check the Navetch 07L LOC approach the height restrictions are there.

They are hideously busy and confusing. How many frequencies can they possibly jam into one section of a chart?
They will be a nightmare for the more senior folks but maybe all the iCadets can figure them out.

I remember not hard tuning NLG for an arrival on 07 a few years back during a line check and got reamed totally for it. Appeared in my report as "momentary loss of situational awareness on arrival in HK". Still have shivers when I think of it today!!!!!!

@ Cavallier

and ofcourse you were most likely under radar vectors at that point anyway right:rolleyes:?.. Poor you...

under radar vectors
 

An probably in VMC as well I suspect cavallier

Ha, both correct!!!!

In addition to QF, Emirates is also looking at iPad-based EFB's, as are many airlines in the US.

What's the bet CX Flight Ops persists with a half-assed system that costs millions and never works properly?

"I'm guessing it will be a POS."

Correct! :ugh:

It's a Shenzhen special that came in at the lowest price, so bad that the people involved in it want out.

The I Pad or rather distractions and difficulty stowing it by the crew was cited as a factor in the Finair taxiway attempted takeoff investigation. Hindering not helping efficiency on that flight deck.

It's also distracting putting my paper checklist away, or dropping my pen, or talking/listening to the radio, or a thousand other things. :ugh:

So does anyone know the answer to the original questions?

Just tried it for the first time.
F...Me! but this interface is a load of Cr@p!

I have a 27 inch screen and have to manage the whole thing in a 2 inch window!

You have to down load each file to have a look at it!

Surely they could do better than this!:ugh::mad:

Just used the ipad app. All CX charts loaded 11,000+ pages took 4 hrs using the CXcity wifi.

Query and Response from Navtech
 

In prep for the recent RT/PC I too was frustrated at not being able to select and download multiple charts at once to save as a PDF file or package like we used to be able to do. I sent a quick email to Navtech asking if there was something that I could be doing wrong. This was their response:

Richard will be in Hong Kong this week to discuss the matter with Cathay. He asked me to pass this message to all our pilots:

I know you may feel that it's really not our job to have to do this, but up to you if you want to email him. His email is below his signature above. I guess they are aware of it. Hope they can get this small feature implemented...among other things...

Aloha.

Ooh yeah come on boys............

Seriously, what an unfortunate name choice. Sort of like Michael Bolton in "Office Space":

"There was nothing wrong with that name, until that no talent ass-clown started making pop music."

Love it. :}

Hahaha, that's pretty funny, even though it is Richard Simmons.

I didn't even think of that! :D
