美国空军即将购买Ipad来替代飞行员地图及手册

The Air Force is Buying iPads To Replace Pilots' Books and Maps

First commercial pilots started getting iPads, and now military pilots want in — the U.S. Air Mobility Command is planning to buy up to 18,000 iPad 2 tablets “or equal devices,” replacing heavy flight bags that pilots use to stow their charts and other flight materials. The devices will apparently be used on the C-5 Galaxy and C-17 Globemaster. The Air Force Special Ops Command is also planning to buy 2,861 iPad 2s for its crews.

The military is calling them “electronic flight bags,” hoping the iPads could replace the heavy notebooks full of aviation charts, regulations and other material that pilots must carry.
