Do they still make ONC/TPC charts?

It seems to me these stopped c. 1998... Actually, they just stopped public paper sales. The stated reason was they didn't want terrorists to use them. But I guess they didn't figure that terrorists could either use old charts or the files in electronic form. |

Because everybody knows that airports move around all the time so you can't use old data. But in the case of DAFIF, the real reason is that the Australian avaition authority sued Jeppeson for using their copyright data. Rather than waiting to see if Australia won and/or that Australian would then go after them, they just withdrew. -- Paul Tomblin http://xcski.com/blogs/pt/ Last I checked, it wasn't the power cord for the Clue Generator that was sticking up your ass. -- John Novak |
