July 16, 2012 - Jeppesen, a unit of Boeing
Flight Services, and Boeing recently introduced
the “Boeing Enroute Application” the first Class
3 electronic flight bag (EFB) solution that
replaces cumbersome paper enroute charts in the
flight deck for commercial operators. The Boeing
Enroute Application is the newest EFB component
in the Jeppesen EFB solution family that
increases situational and operational awareness
for airlines.
Designed for use with certified and fully
integrated aircraft EFB systems, designated as
Class 3, the Boeing Enroute Application provides
an interactive, data-driven enroute display
based on industry-standard navigation
information from Jeppesen’s global enroute
library.
Optimized, vector image rendering of current
Jeppesen chart data helps pilots to enhance the
decision making process to maintain or improve
safety standards. The option to eliminate
paper-based materials in the cockpit helps
increase operational efficiency through improved
fuel efficiency and a reduction of overall
costs.
“The Boeing Enroute Application offered through
Jeppesen’s EFB solution introduces true
data-driven digital enroute information
delivered in the right format at the right
time,” said Tim Huegel, director, Jeppesen
Aviation Portfolio Management.
