their own charts. In almost 40 years I haven't met anyone, not 1, who
prefers the gov charts over Jepps.


What do the military pilots use?


I think military pilots are - or used to be - required to use the fed
charts. Still, I never met one who, after having an opportunity to use
Jepps, maintained a preference for the gov charts.

Most people I know found the government update system awkward, but it was
designed for a different kind of operation, where a pilot could go into Ops
and get a chart kit and know that it was invariably uniform and current. No
one had to go through the set and r/r individual sheets.
