Default Cheap Jeppesen charts

Does any one know where to buy CURRENT jepp charts (for California) online, one time purchase?

I'd go with the California Express annual subscription service. They send you a new box of charts each revision period and all you have to do is take all the old ones out and put the entire stack of brand new ones in. If you go with the standard service, they'll send you envelopes every two weeks and you spend a lot of time sorting through the revisions. The later might be better for you though if you fly a lot of IFR.

As far as being cheap however, best of luck with that one. Buy the binder on e-bay or just go to Office Max and buy a 2" 3 ring binder that's set up for 5 1/2 x 8 for a few bucks.

It's a one time IFR flight... so subscription would be ideal if I were flying IFR a lot (I wish) but its just a time building trip.

I would just purchase the government chars for a one time flight if you want cheap, otherwise the jepp charts are going to cost you. The best and cheapest is to borrow charts if you can.

You can also purchase a one time set of charts through Jepp as well, but as mentioned above it's way cheaper to get a current set of NACOs.
