Default Re: Revisions

Revisions are new charts. Normally every two weeks you will get an envelope with all the plates that have changed in the last printing cycle. Then you have to go through your plates and throw out everything that has changed and replace it with the updates. Sometimes stuff gets tossed and not replaced (NDB approach a lot of times) and sometimes stuff gets added like new approaches or new airports.

It's mostly a pain but it has to be done. In theory you could just get a complete new set of plates every time, but that wouldn't be very cost effective.
