Electronic Flight Bag

Another is adding 2 simple pages to an open PDF is nothing like a sim software and by no means should bring a powerful PC to its knees including extensive cleaning.
I am not implying anything but sharing my own experience with something that never took place with s rather stable computer.One possibility is that you did nothing that caused the issue nor did the PDF authors. PDFs are not simple as there are different versions from different years, there are different flavors, there are different properties that can be included or not, Adobe PDFs are not exactly the same as Microsoft PDFs are not exactly the same as Apple PDFs are not exactly the same as specialized PDF software documents (like PDF Architect).
Editing a PDF (or any complex document) that becomes corrupted and crashes the editing app could mess with your computer. Just my experience. Luckily this is rare, but it has happened to me and others as well. What a pain.
Try different editing software. The best option is to obtain the document in its original format and edit that. Both strategies have worked for me.

Hello everyone,
What is the most effective way to use this amazing tool on ipad 3(İOS 9)? I am having a bit of trouble. Do I need a better Ipad?
-
mhm, on my iphone, I have downloaded acrobat reader to open the pdf. It seem to work smoother than letting default Apple stuff handle it
-
Thanks Quasi_Stellar, unfortunately most of PDF readers are not compatable with IOS 9 anymore. That is the problem:)
-
I use this wonderful tool on my iPad using the default PDF viewer. It’s ok, probably a PDF reader would handle it better.

On my old IPad mini I use the reduced size Flight Bag with the iBook Pdf viewer

I’m using it with Goodreader.
Kinda pricy App, but over the years using it, I’m still happy with it and judge it worth the price.
It supports several Cloud-Services, Document-Types and has a small Browser. -

Hello guys,
thanks to the great effort from POLARIS1 from the 72nd VFW we can proudly announce the publication of the BALKAN EFB.
He got on the train and developed and improved our KOREA EFB and added a lot of new information for the BALKAN Theater.Please check the first post for further information and download option.
The next EFB will be for the Polar Vortex Theater, Stay tuned.

When one has a splendid template that was so well thought of, planned, researched and designed…as the work done creating EFB Korea by EuKeule and Anvil one has a short path to just adapt it to another theater.
What’s more the kind of cooperation that was done with the both of them which revolved not about ego but about respect to one another in order to continue advancing the project these two started for the community.Well Done !!!

Would it be possible to download data from WDP into EFB?
-
You can save the WDP DataCard which generates jpg images of the WDP pages. As EFB is a pdf you might add these a pages with Adobe pro or any other off creator program.
Technically would be even possible to write a programm to do those steps automatocallyGesendet von meinem SM-G930F mit Tapatalk

Flight preparations and flight itself calls for a toolbox consisting of sever tools.
WDP is a dedicated briefing tool for a certain flight at a certain date.
EFB is an electronic library of all data relating to the BMS F-16 and a specific BMS theater.
It has a rough briefing tool and a notes taking page but that’s it.
So…prepare for the flight with one tool and use the other tool for more data as needed.For example: share the WDP relevant output with your flight members to prepare for call sign, schedule, weather, load out, freqs.
All along expect your flight members to have relevant plates, AFB and navaid freqs, and any needed data at their grasp within seconds with the EFB.Don’t forget…the EFB is there to replace the HUGE heavy bag full of books and maps pilots used to carry to each flight.
The briefing is only a few sheets of paper they take with them just before the flight and its data is relevant for that specific flight, as planned, with basic data.
