Jeppesen Charts ? Do they still exist?
Hi - Please could someone answer my following 5 questions. Thanks!

1. where do i get these jeppesen charts from?

2. Do real world pilots still use them (im talking airline pilots flying passengers)

3. Does each airport have its own jeppesen chart?

4. I want jeppesen charts for whatever journey i try to replicate in the game.

5. So if im flying from East midlands Airport to Inverness i would like to have the charts for these.

The set I have is a PDF and has 14,784 diagrams. so not every 24,000+ airports, but a lot. As for accurate, don't worry about getting the latest updated charts. They just need to be updated as of 2006 since that's when FSX originally came out.

To be fair with https://www.aero.sors.fr/navaids3.html free updates to AIRAC 2004 it makes sense to get the most actual ones.

I would agree when using FS2020 but not if the new information does not match what FSX:SE has because something changed since FSX was released almost 14 years ago.

sky vector doesnt show all information? like holding patterns etc. Jeppessn charts show everything. I did check this site but could not get it to show the holding patterns or other information shown on jeppesen charts

charts from elsewhere. Site gives you an update for FSX to AIRAC 2004.

right thanks.

so back to original question at the start.

where do i get jeppesen charts from or does someone here have all 24000.

i want to make my journey realistic from and to airports as a real pilot of an airline might.

i cant believe jeppesen stopped support for it. See how quick they will jump on the bandwagon when fs2020 is released

step1: open a free account with (https://www.simbrief.com)

step2: create a flight and enter your departure and arrival airport

step3: generate flightplan

step4: subscribe to Navigraph Charts for a month

step5: link your Simbrief account to your Navigraph account

step6: open flight plan in Navigraph Charts and view Arrival, approach, SID and Taxi plates on your phone, your iPad, your Laptop or PC (all at the same time if you choose) and track your flight progress as you fly in the sim!

step7: Profit

or just google the Airport ICAO followed by 'charts'

e.g. 'EGLL charts' give the result (https://vau.aero/navdb/chart/EGLL.pdf)

American Airports can be more frustrating as you sometimes find each plate is an individual PDF
