E-FlyBook by ARINC ARINC is the first in the world to market new 'Electronic-Paper' Based eReader from iRex Technologies to the aviation industry.
The eFlyBook stores all of the digitized US terminal procedures, enroute charts, the complete airport facility directory and FAR/AIM documents—with room to spare for user-installed documents. Unlike laptop screens, the eFlyBook display remains sharp, clear, and legible under all cockpit lighting—even direct sunlight. Based on new "persistent display" technology, the screen requires very little power and no backlighting. The display can run during long hours of flight over several days on a single charge.
