    Jeppesen Navigation Data Now Available For LSA, Experimental Aircraft
    Fri, 12 Nov '10

    Advanced Flight Systems Avionics Units Teams With Chart Company
    Jeppesen and Advanced Flight Systems, a supplier of avionics hardware for the light sport and experimental aircraft, have entered into an agreement to provide Jeppesen NavData and obstacle services for Advanced Flight Systems avionics navigation systems. The avionics data offering serves as part of a total Jeppesen light sport and experimental aircraft suite for both certified and non-certified aircraft.



    “We now offer light sport and experimental pilots the top flight information and navigation data available, with Jeppesen NavData now available through Advanced Flight Systems avionics systems,” said Rob Hickman, CEO of Advanced Flight Systems. “This marks an exciting step forward, with the most accurate and complete navigation data now being offered onboard for Advanced Flight Systems customers through this agreement with Jeppesen.”

    For light sport and experimental aircraft avionics systems, Jeppesen provides NavData navigation information, obstacle data and aviation parts and supplies offered through partner company Aviall. Jeppesen navigation data updates are available online, through the Jeppesen Services Update Manager system. Jeppesen also offers JeppView electronic charting for compatible avionics systems, which provides the only true, consistent worldwide electronic chart coverages for the industry.

    “Jeppesen is expanding services provided for the innovators and aviation enthusiasts associated with the light sport and experimental aircraft industry, including world-class navigation data and leading online training programs,” said Scott Reagan, director, Jeppesen OEM Client Management. “Providing NavData information for Advanced Flight Systems avionics hardware helps to serve this dynamic segment of the aviation community and ensures delivery of the highest quality flight information available for aircraft owner/operators.”



    Jeppesen NavData and obstacle services are available for the Advanced Flight Systems AF-4500 Advanced Deck, AF-3500 and AF-3400 avionics systems. Coverage areas include North America, South America, Europe, Africa, Eurasia, the Middle East and the Pacific region.

    Jeppesen NavData is developed from a comprehensive aviation database, which is composed of more than one million records. To ensure accuracy, Jeppesen flight information analysts edit and verify approximately 150,000 database transactions generated from worldwide aviation data source documents during every 28-day revision cycle. This intensive process ensures that NavData provided for avionics systems such as Advanced Flight Systems is the most complete and accurate flight information available.

    So what is different/needed with the new Jepp terrain and vector files? Does it augment the existing AF Map files? Are both needed? Do you install just one or the other or both? Will the jepp terrain and vector data be updated and available for free just as the AF Map data is currently?

  3. #3
    You need three files for mapping and/or synthetic vision. The AFMAP, AFVEC, and AFTER files. The Jep data is for our International customers. The terrain and vector files are on our website, the mapping file is downloaded from Jeppesens JSUM software program after a subscription has been purchased.

    i don't want to hold the class back but the: "The Jep data is for our International customers" and "We do not currently have the ability to display Jeppesen charts on the EFIS screens." seems to indicate that this not pertinent at this time?

    The map data itself (airport location and information) is a completely different file type than the approach plates. We use Jeppesen mapping information to overlay on our maps but do not have the ability to display Jep Approach Plates. Currently the format of the Jep plates are not compatible with our units.
