You obviously want an argument, not a discussion. No, you claim there is some certification process for software for it to be airworthy. If there is such a thing, you should be ready to back up what you post. Otherwise, what you say about it being validated as airworthy has no foundation. |

You should take up a different hobby. Why? Just because you think flying expenses are reasonable doesn't prohibit me from commenting about how ridiculous the aviation community is being gouged. |

There's lots of people involved checking the data. I don't understand this. Doesn't Jepp get their data from the FAA? Isn't the underlying data already V&V'd by the time Jepp gets it? Actually, does anyone here know the actual process by which approach plates are generated? I can get approach plates in electronic form (PDF) for free from the FAA. How are these plates produced? I presume they are not hand-drawn, that they are automatically generated from some underlying data, which would be the same underlying data that Jepp uses to produce its plates, and so there's no reason this couldn't be a completely automated process. It seems to me that all Jepp is doing is reformatting data that is already in the public domain, in which case it isn't really worth that much of a premium. But if this is true, why hasn't a competitor stepped up to the plate (so to speak)? rg |

In article , lid says... That's not completely true, go to http://ais.fi/, click the IN ENGLISH tab and then eAIP link. You will get the whole AIP, including all route and approach charts. A similar system is at least on the Estonian AIP pages. Because I told speak Fin I don't know what that is all about. If the data are current that are the exception. And, I don't need to learn seversl chart formats to fly internationally. Please read again: CLICK THE IN ENGLISH TAB, and try again. There is an ICAO standard format for the charts, which our AIS follows to the letter. -- It may not be that simple. US users are familiar with the TERPS presentation, which is not used in most of Europe. Pans-Ops is similar, but does require some further study to interpret all the details correctly. Jeppesen regroups the information in a familiar way in all countries, and this can be a real help, rather than having to learn new charting conventions every hal-hour as you cross from one smallish country to the next. By curiosity, do you have a similar link for the Latvian and Lithuanian charts, in English? Hello, Sorry - I have not needed to go so far away without the built-in Jeppesen in G1000 of our DA-42. (Actually it's not very far - the Latvian border is about an hour's flight from my home base, EFHF, Helsinki-Malmi.) Also, the international cooperation in my work has been principally limited to Estonia in the southerly direction. -- Tauno Voipio tauno voipio (at) iki fi |
