Also, everybody already has all of the Jepps they need. We are all responsible for ALL of the charts that the company distributes to us, but only need to carry what is listed in C070 (or whatever it is) for that particular cert. The prudent thing for the company would be to just re-issue charts for the airports that are not common to Shuttle and CHQ....and I can't imagine that is very many airports. Once the C070 is updated, just go through your jeeps, figure out which airports you don't have, and send a request to tech pubs or go to the jeppview on the company website and print them off a company computer...like I said, I really doubt that either cert will need to add very many airports.
The cost for the charts and the manuals is gonna be negligible and isn't a factor.
Also, if we spread the word that everyone needs to get their e-learn iPad module completed ASAP, this will all be a lot less painful...not that it will be, regardless.
I just switched from CHQ to S5, I had to get all new jepps because the max they replace is 10 full airports. I needed about 25. CHQ went to a ton of small places. Now with AA and UAL out of their c070 it might not be so bad. Now as for the GOM and POH: ship sets on the planes, but we still have paper copies of both manuals at home.
