Our Favorite Mobile Device Gets Jepp Power
The staff at ANN knows better than to try to get between Jim Campbell and his iPad... and when he sees a new App for his treasured computer side-kick, he usually makes a bee-line to upload it and give it a test flight. And when mighty Jepp joins the iPad revolution, that's a big deal indeed. The first of Jepp's forays into the Tablet biz looks like a winner from the get-go.
Jepp's new “Jeppesen Mobile TC” terminal chart application is designed for searching and viewing terminal charts via the Apple iPad. Available for download online at the Apple iPad App Store, this App is designed for use within the GA and BizAv communities. JeppView electronic navigation charting service subscription customers have access to Jeppesen terminal charts at no additional charge, using one of four available site keys provided with JeppView and NavSuite subscriptions. However; if all four subscription site keys are in use, an additional site key purchase would be required.
The Jeppesen Mobile TC application provides pilots with another tool for advancing towards a paperless operating environment. Jeppesen will address iPad applications for other aviation markets in the near future. Additional Jeppesen data services for iPad in the airline market, including tailored electronic charting and crew planning solutions, are being evaluated.
