Jeppesen Makes Strides In Education

And iPad Gets Another App

By Dan Billingsley

Access for all is the driving force behind Jeppesen's training team as they strive to help students be more successful. A staggering 75% of the students that begin flight instruction either fail or don't complete the training, and Jeppesen is out to change that statistic with what they call "Complete Training Solutions."


Jeppesen's David Wright

"It is now easier at every level for students to get into flying. From the flight school to the consumer student," said Jeppesen's David Wright, Senior manager, Training Solutions, at a Thursday news conference. Partnering with flight schools as well as on-line curriculum are two avenues they have taken. Several on-line courses have been included such as Private Pilot Online, Sport Pilot Online, and Instrument Pilot to name a few. Along with the complete training, Jeppesen offers all the student supplies that may be needed. And when it comes to working with schools, they will custom tailor the system to meet your needs.

Also rolled out at the Thursday news conference was the Jeppesen Mobile TC (Terminal Chart) to be used as an App on the Apple iPad. The Mobile TC is now ready for download online and will provide a paperless alternative to carrying all those terminal charts. It is, however, not intended to be used for navigation but more for searching and viewing. The program will provide the pilot with another tool for a clean flight deck environment.

It was said that subscription customers of the Jepp View Electronic navigation service will have access to this Mobile TC at no additional charge. Be looking for additional things to be added to the iPad platform as Jeppesen continues to listen to their customer requests.
