Does anybody know why it so happened that there's literally
nobody else out there besides jepp in aeronautical charting
Jeppesen started so early on (early 30s), and his little notebooks were so
relevant and to the point, that it didn't take much for the Jepps to become
the de facto industry standard, even after the government started publishing
their own charts. In almost 40 years I haven't met anyone, not 1, who
prefers the gov charts over Jepps.
I like the FAA enroute charts better than Jepps', and the "new" (a few
years old by now) format on FAA approach plates is fine.
I will probably switch to FAA charts when my Jepps subscription expires
in a couple of months.
