We'll Unpack the Electronic Flight Bag at this Month's Second Saturday! While most of today's pilots learned to fly when paper sectionals, approach plates, and airport guides were the only options, many are adapting to emerging digital products that place flight information and navigation within our own personal technology. At this month's Second Saturday Seminar, FAA Safety Inspector Gene Hahn will discuss the Electronic Flight Bag (EFB) — a general term that refers to portable technology, typically as a replacement for paper products, such as sectionals and approach plates. A Gold Seal flight instructor who spent three decades as an airline operations executive, Gene returned to his General Aviation roots a few years ago. He'll review the FAA's latest rules and regulations when it comes to devices in the cockpit, and he'll also discuss EFB tricks you'll want to try and traps you'll want to avoid. Be sure to bring your preferred tablet or phone, as well as plenty of questions!
