How many Jepp binders do you carry?

[COOPERVANE]

your company should give you 3 or so binders. No need to buy any.

Two big ones, one 1", and an accordion for the en route charts (which I've never, ever used). I keep the charts for the trip in the 1" and clean it out when I do revisions, so the big ones only come out once a trip and when I do revisions.

Since Comair changed the reserve rules I have only flown two legs this month, which means I'm a little behind on revisions. I haven't done an overnight in over a month, which is totally beside the point, but quite a feat considering life on reserve at Comair.

none, charts stay with the airplane.

That's how it should be everywhere.

Absolutely!!! this is the company's responsability, not yours... what's next?? How much fuel should I hedge to fly my jet around for my company???

Do the airlines provide pilots with Q service updates?

 

[doug_or]

none, they're too damn expensive. 3 2" office depot binders.

Not that I've ever heard of. Just tailored Jepp coverages revised every 14 days.

Hi!

I'm like one of the other posters. I carry 0. The Falcons have 14, the DC-9s have 26 to cover the parts of N. America we fly in.

I'm at USA Jet, and we are hiring. Starting pay is $33K base and you can make more. 1 FO I know made $7K last Jun.

C U!
