Jeppesen NavSuite: An Integrated Electronic<br />

Navigation Solution<br />

Jeppesen recently launched<br />

NavSuite , a fully integrated,<br />

convenient bundle of Jeppesen’s<br />

leading software applications<br />

offered at a low monthly price.<br />

NavSuite is composed of JeppView ®<br />

electronic Airway Manual ® charts<br />

and various flight planning<br />

applications, tailored to fit the<br />

needs of business aircraft<br />

operators. NavSuite is another<br />

step in Jeppesen’s long term<br />

strategy to seamlessly integrate<br />

and bundle various services for<br />

convenience and value.<br />

NavSuite is designed to simplify<br />

the process of maintaining<br />

subscriptions and data while<br />

reducing the overall cost of the<br />

services. A single update for all<br />

of the applications within the<br />

suite is available every 14 days via<br />

CD and Internet download.<br />

With an Internet connection,<br />

customers can keep their data<br />

current anywhere, at anytime—an<br />

important feature considering<br />

pilots and flight crews are often<br />

away from their home when<br />

updates become available.<br />

By combining various applications,<br />

NavSuite gives customers one<br />

seamless package, which means<br />

convenience and savings—up to<br />

50 percent on revision services.<br />

NavSuite subscribers also get the<br />

added benefit of reduced fees on<br />

Jeppesen's International Trip<br />

Planning service.<br />

NavSuite Continental and NavSuite<br />

Global are aimed at the business<br />

aviation market and offer<br />

JeppView along with access to<br />

JetPlanner and JetPlan.com,<br />

Jeppesen’s flight planning<br />

applications with features suited<br />

to operators of high performance<br />

business jets and turboprops.<br />

NavSuite Global gives customers<br />

the full capability of Jeppesen's<br />

JetPlan ® flight planning engine,<br />

while NavSuite Continental offers<br />

a reduced flight planning feature<br />

set and lower cost. NavSuite<br />

Continental is better tailored to<br />

corporate operators who generally<br />

2<br />

fly jet or turboprop aircraft within<br />

a single hemisphere.<br />

JeppView services provide<br />

full-color, high-quality, vectorbased<br />

electronic charts, as well as<br />

electronic enroute charts that can<br />

be customized to meet user<br />

preferences. JeppView contains<br />

the same information as<br />

Jeppesen’s Airway Manual<br />

coverages, including electronic<br />

terminal approach charts, arrival<br />

and departure procedures, and<br />

airport diagrams. Electronic text<br />

has also been added to eliminate<br />

the need to carry paper text.<br />

Paper enroute charts and area<br />

charts round out these services.<br />

Now included as part of all<br />

JeppView subscriptions is<br />

JeppView FliteDeck—the moving<br />

map application. Its user<br />

interface was designed using<br />

proven human factors principles,<br />

like tabs for easy access to flight<br />

critical data and a GPS position<br />

spotter overlaid on geo-referenced<br />

enroute and terminal charts for<br />

unmatched situational awareness<br />

during all phases of flight.<br />

During the enroute phase<br />

of flight, the customizable<br />

display gives users pertinent<br />

information at their fingertips,<br />

including a detailed enroute<br />

moving map, communication<br />

and navigation frequencies, MSL<br />

plus AGL altitudes, and an<br />

emergency function that points<br />

the way to the nearest airports.<br />

JeppView FliteDeck allows pilots<br />

to seamlessly transition to the<br />

approach view using a terminal<br />

chart overlaid on the enroute<br />

map or with the click of a tab.<br />

JeppView FliteDeck<br />

JetPlan.com is the easiest, most<br />

convenient way to plan a flight.<br />

It gives you Internet access to<br />

JetPlan anytime, anywhere.<br />

Users can receive weather and<br />

NOTAMs, view planned routes<br />

against ETOPS and other<br />

constraints, create flight plans<br />

and file them with ATC, and<br />

much more, all without<br />

dedicated hardware or software.<br />

All that is needed is an Internetenabled<br />

PC equipped with<br />

Internet Explorer 5.0 or higher.<br />

JetPlanner is the choice of<br />

corporate flight departments<br />

everywhere. JetPlanner combines<br />

Jeppesen International Trip Planning<br />

and CBAS<br />

<strong>The</strong> Indian sub-continent, located<br />

as it is on the important Middle<br />

and Far-East trade route, holds<br />

strategic significance for businesses<br />

worldwide. India is on the<br />

threshold of a globalization of its<br />

industry poised to play a significant<br />

role as an engine of this growth.<br />

Located in the heart of the Indian<br />

aerospace industry is Commercial<br />

retired officers of the Indian Air<br />

Force who, using their broad<br />

experience and knowledge of<br />

both the military and civil<br />

aviation sectors, combined their<br />

entrepreneurial skills to tap the<br />

market by providing unmatched<br />

convenient and centrally located<br />

arrival and departure point for<br />

destinations in Mainland China,<br />

Asia, and beyond. <strong>The</strong> Hong Kong<br />

Business Aviation Centre recognizes<br />

that traveling by business aircraft<br />

saves time, enhances flexibility, and<br />

increases productivity, and offers a<br />

full range of services to complement<br />

this overall purpose.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Hong Kong Business Aviation<br />

Centre Executive Terminal and<br />

Hangar complex is designed and<br />

built to the highest international<br />

standards. On-site Customs and<br />

Immigration clearance, a wellappointed<br />

Jeppesen Weather Flashes with USPLN Lightning Data<br />

Beginning in July of 2005, Jeppesen<br />

will incorporate lightning data from<br />

the U.S. Precision Lightning<br />

Network (USPLN) in our weather<br />

maps. USPLN is a partnership<br />

between TOA Systems and Weather<br />

Decision Technologies (WDT). TOA<br />

the lightning sensors, and WDT<br />

operates the network with TOA,<br />

distributes the lightning data, and<br />

provides applications that display<br />

the data.<br />

Jeppesen has become a value-added<br />

reseller for the USPLN data and will<br />

include the data in our weather<br />

products beginning this July. <strong>The</strong><br />

USPLN uses innovative technology<br />

that allows the detection of both<br />

cloud to ground (CG) lightning as<br />

well as within cloud (CC, IC, CA)<br />

lightning. Normally, more than 70<br />

percent of all lightning strikes are<br />

within cloud type lightning, which<br />

is very pertinent to aviation.<br />

Previously, only cloud to ground<br />

lightning data was available from<br />

the National Lightning Detection<br />

Network operated by Vaisala<br />

(formerly Global Atmospherics<br />

Incorporated). Jeppesen will provide<br />

the total lightning picture that is<br />

available from the USPLN.<br />

Another benefit that the USPLN<br />

offers is an extended geographic<br />

coverage. <strong>The</strong> USPLN network<br />

consists of approximately 90 sensors<br />

across the United States. <strong>The</strong> normal<br />

range of the sensors is around 500<br />

miles, but using ionospheric skip<br />

technology, some lightning can be<br />

6<br />

detected thousands of miles from<br />

the sensors. <strong>The</strong> normal detection<br />

efficiency of the USPLN is greater<br />

than 95 percent with strike location<br />

accuracy within 250 meters.<br />

However, detection efficiency and<br />

accuracy decrease as distance from<br />

the sensors increases. Even so, the<br />

USPLN regularly detects lightning<br />

strikes as far away as northern<br />

Canada, the Caribbean, Mexico and<br />

Latin America, northern South<br />

America, and the eastern Pacific out<br />

to Hawaii. <strong>The</strong> corresponding map<br />

shows actual lightning strikes<br />

overlaid with infrared satellite<br />

imagery. You can see how far<br />

away lightning is detected and<br />

how well it corresponds with<br />

satellite imagery.<br />

Jeppesen will offer USPLN lightning<br />

data as separate maps that are<br />

updated every 10-15 minutes, as<br />

well as include lightning data with<br />

Infrared and Visible satellite images.<br />

In areas outside of the NEXRAD<br />

radar network, lightning data is<br />

the best way to determine if<br />

convective activity and thunderstorms<br />

are present.<br />

Our display software allows us to<br />

show past lightning as well as<br />

current activity, so we can see trends<br />

in the activity. This is helpful in<br />

determining if a thunderstorm is<br />

growing or decaying and showing<br />

the movement of the active cells.<br />

We feel that the addition of the<br />

USPLN lightning data to Jeppesen<br />

weather products is another step in<br />

providing the best aviation weather<br />

information to our customers. With<br />

the recent additions of a NEXRAD<br />

forecast product, worldwide<br />

turbulence and icing maps, and now<br />

the USPLN lightning data, Jeppesen<br />

is at the forefront of state of the art<br />

aviation weather products. We are<br />

committed and solely focused on<br />

aviation weather products that add<br />

value to the customer, and help you<br />

make more informed decisions<br />

about your flight.
