The other is that the 777s come with the Jeppesen EFB and Boeing WILL NOT sell to us without them because of licensing to Jepp. Therefore, they are looking at going back to Jepps for the whole fleet!!??? Good news is that we won't have to carry them, but they will be back in the airplanes and the main source of navigation. Discuss.
Someone asked JimB about the jepps thing during recurrent. He said there was absolutely No truth to the rumor. The 777 will have LIDO. Boeing would rather sell airplanes, than Jepps.
