Default EFB, etc

Hi guys,
Several years ago my former employer adopted the LIDO paper charts for all a/c, worldwide. The complete flight kit was maintained on the a/c and updated on the a/c.....no carry for the crews.

This was an interim step prior to EFB implementation. Since LIDO was a bit different than Jepp, the FAA wanted paper available to the crews for a trial period prior to going paperless.

Huge long-term cost saving to the company, and a back saver for the crews......btw, all charts were available in a Flight Information Viewer that was available on the fltops website, so you could review, print as desired.

Leaving Jepp was a bit painful at first, but LIDO offered a superior product for the EFB.....anyone else here have experience with LIDO ?
