Jeppesen Mobile FD 4+

I love Jeppesen. I love the story behind it...if you haven’t read “Jepp” do so....it’s a great very short read. As is the story of Flight Safety.

As a pilot, the mark of a an excellent company that sacrifices zero safety, is the one that furnishes each and every one of their pilots with their own subscription of Jeppesen. This allows them to begin the preparation even before they get to the airplane. And keep up with changes to frequented airports.

I have to preface the next by saying I would never fly without Jeppesen charts....ever.

My wish list.

1.)More “saved flights”.
A minimum of 20 saved flights. Preferably 30, and a method of placing them in our own order.

2.) Allow certain symbols to be selected on the 10-9, 10-9a, Departure Diagram, Arrival Diagram. Preferably red, so that you can add outages and closures to your briefings.

I can list a few more...but I’m sure the first two will be difficult enough to program.

I’ll close by thanking Elry for his endless commitment to precision measurement and data collection. A true pioneer of aviation. 10 bucks says half the flights he did measuring his first charts were in a Boeing Stearman.....Good match.

The app works fine, smooth. The only thing is that they haven’t updated the app to add features like the most wanted in app subscription purchases and invert flight plan. Hope they do it soon

Introduced into our 121 operation 4 years ago. Slowdowns observed if multiple apps are left running in the background. Simple policy change was implemented not to leave apps running when not used; haven’t had performance issues since.
