zmoney Posted March 23, 2009 Posted March 23, 2009 https://www.baseops.net/jeppesen/ Just noticed that link on the main page... What's the deal with this, how is baseops involved? (the link on the main page points to a baseops site, not a jep site). Also noticed that milplanner link... Jep getting more friendly with the DoD?

DoD has a program setup so that all DoD users (including USCG) can view charts online. I joined up a while ago but haven't used it since. My unit found out via FCIF.
Guest C-21 Pilot Posted March 23, 2009 Posted March 23, 2009 ^^ Correct... You can pull up the standard SDP charts as we always have. In the C-17 community, us EP/IP/AC types were given our own personal password to pull up the appoach/departure plates, airfield diagrams, taxi plans etc. (in addtion to the OPSDATA portion). Check w/ your OGV for further info...
brabus Posted March 24, 2009 Posted March 24, 2009 Just curious, why use Jepp instead of the normal FLIP?
POKESC17 Posted March 24, 2009 Posted March 24, 2009 Just curious, why use Jepp instead of the normal FLIP? Not every airfield we go to has a DOD approach
Riddller Posted March 24, 2009 Posted March 24, 2009 Not every airfield we go to has a DOD approach True! I had to go to a WAY out of the way airfield in Thailand once. Thank you Jeppesen!
Guest Alarm Red Posted March 24, 2009 Posted March 24, 2009 Not every airfield we go to has a DOD approach Plates for all CONUS destinations without NGA approaches: FAA NACO TPPs
Techsan Posted March 24, 2009 Posted March 24, 2009 Jepp airfield diagrams are so much better than the DOD ones...'fo show.
Guest Form 8 Posted March 24, 2009 Posted March 24, 2009 Just curious, why use Jepp instead of the normal FLIP? Why don't you go look it up?
M2 Posted March 25, 2009 Posted March 25, 2009 Anyone hear back from them on your application? I put mine in two days ago, and haven't heard squat back yet... Cheers! M2
POKESC17 Posted March 25, 2009 Posted March 25, 2009 I've had it take as little as a day and up to five days when I have submitted them for the squadron.
Baseops.Net Posted March 29, 2009 Posted March 29, 2009 https://www.baseops.net/jeppesen/ Just noticed that link on the main page... What's the deal with this, how is baseops involved? (the link on the main page points to a baseops site, not a jep site). A friend of mine is a Reservist and also works for Jepp -- he told me about this program and provided details. I simply put it all on a webpage - since Jepp did not have a webpage dedicated to this offer... Break -- Break For the Young-Bucks out there that want to learn more about the historical context of DOD FLIP versus Jepp plates and their use by USAF, read up on the AF 737 crash in Dubrovnik with Commerce Secretary Ron Brown on board (Jepp approach without required navigation equipment on board) in April 1996 and the subsequent investigations and cover-ups. For you consipiricy theorists, check out this article about the Brown crash.
DeHavilland Posted January 16, 2011 Posted January 16, 2011 Does anyone else have the problem of pages slow to load and the actual downloading of approaches being even slower? I have used this since it first came out and it is consistently slow to download whether from home or office CONUS and home or office OCONUS. In the box now and it is practically worthless trying to download from here. Great product, but useless when it takes 15 minutes per airport to download.
