[QUOTE=Ranger.

Now, if I was part of the 727 or DC-10 community I'd be totally ****ed. Those airplanes will never see the EFB so they're stuck with the paper product. And the paper product is a total pain to use. Where do the 727 guys lay all of that crap as they're getting ready to brief?[/QUOTE]

So why they couln't leave the 27 and the 10 with jepps. We're using an emergency backup system as our primary means of navigation. Most of the -10 models of the DC-10 and a lot of 727's only have 2 VORs, 2 DMEs, and an ADF for nav use. And there aren't many(any?) ADF arpproaches any more.
