Our company has one Worldwide set of Jepp books on the plane, and then for the second pilot, we use the Jepp View plates that we print on our on board computer/printer. It is hard enough to keep the one worldwide set of books up to date, I could not imagine having to keep a second set up to date as well. This policy works well, and keeps the work load down, and the Feds off our back.

One of my buddies was failed on a JAR-checkride due to only copied charts and not having the original ones handy... That was quiet some money not saved. I don't remember the legal basis, but the result of the check was backed up by the respective NAA.

Our charts are free and readily avaliable off the internet. Suppose the philosophy being its safer for the pilot to have a current chart than none or a old one. Cant see the difference between the photocopier or home printer really
