Available To Entegra & MFD Customers

Owners of Avidyne's displays with CMax Charts can now download Terminal Charts, Airport Diagrams and/or European VFR Charts subscription from Jeppesen for use on Apple iPad at no additional charge, the company announced Monday.

"Jeppesen has developed an easy-to-use iPad application, Jeppesen Mobile TC, that allows general aviation pilots to receive all the information from their standard Airway Manual and VFR Manual in an easy-to-use electronic format," said Thomas Wede, Jeppesen senior vice president and general manager, Aviation. "Now, Avidyne MFD customers with CMax can download an iPad App to view their current chart subscriptions at no additional charge."

 "Avidyne and Jeppesen recognize the situational awareness benefits of electronic charts in the cockpit, and a large percentage of our Entegra Flight Deck and EX-Series MFD customers fly with CMax Charts," said Patrick Herguth, Avidyne's Chief Operating Officer. "We are delighted to offer our customers this valuable Jeppesen iPad solution that provides a redundant, safety-enhancing piloting tool." 

Jeppesen Mobile TC is available for free download for the iPad at the Apple App Store. Charts subscription services are available through Jeppesen. Each paid subscription includes four 'seat licenses.'  Typically, a pilot will dedicate one seat license for their panel-mounted MFD, one for use on their home computer, and one for a laptop, leaving one which can be used for the iPad.
