Default Are my Jepp charts current?

What the heck is the deal? The NACO low enroutes are revised every 56 days, but my Jepp low enroutes 11/12 and 13/14 are from Februrary!

I've got the Texas express pack or whatever they call it. I receive revisions periodically and appear to be current on everything.

Also, I'm missing at least one DFW arrival that appears in the NACO charts.

Please enlighten me.

jepp charts are valid until replaced by a revision. If you look through some smaller airports you may find approaches dated back in 97 or 98 that are still current.

If you are missing a chart call jeppesen.

But how do you know if a revision has been issued? They don't publish an index with the latest rev date, do they?

We have a list of effective pages as part of our chart index. I *think* they have chart effective dates on them.

When I got the express pack, I would recieve an envelope with all the reviosions including a page telling me what I needed to replace or throw away.

How do you know the index is current?

Why do old Jewish men answer a question with another question?

Why not?


Ok, because I care, I went and looked at my List of Effective pages for my Jepps. Sure enough, every page listed has a revision date on it. Now, how do I know my LEP is up to date? Well, this wouldn't work for a non flight operation environment but at the top of the LEP it says revision 23-07 (24-07 and 25-07 are in my bag... I need to put them in today). I know 23-07 (actually 24-07) is current because if I go look at the DRS put out by the company it says that 24-07 is the most current and update revision out there. We do have 25-07 in our possession, but it isn't effective yet. How would you know any of this with out the DRS? No idea.
