Electronic Recording of Advance Information Leaflets (AILs)
There are no AILs
to be deleted
1.
On
receipt of a hardcopy AIL, the digital versions of JAP 100A-01 and JAP 100A-02,
(JAP(D)), on CD-ROM, will be out of step with the hardcopy/paper versions.
2.
Because
it is impossible to update a CD-ROM, the following system has been developed to
allow for local updating of a standalone personal computer (PC) or Laptop to
the current AIL standard to aid electronic browsing of the JAP 100A-01 and JAP
100A-02. This is useful if a Sqn/Unit
wishes to deploy with a laptop but doesn’t want to take all the paper
amendments that go with each chapter.
Note: Although the system will work on a network the additions will
only be visible locally.
3.
The
system relies on personnel updating the PC/Laptop to the current AIL standard
before use. It is not envisaged that
there will be many AILs issued; moreover, if a JAP 100A-01 chapter has an
airworthiness implication a new CD will be issued anyway.
4.
The
message text in red above indicates the status of previous AILs, ie whether
they can be deleted because they have been incorporated in the latest issue of
the JAP(D) on CD-ROM.
5.
Simply
enter the details from the hardcopy AIL into the electronic version (via the
‘Add New AIL’ hyperlink) and select “Save.”
This creates a folder called “JAP 100A-01 AILs - Do Not Delete” and
makes a copy of the AIL on the host computer’s C: drive. This is where the hyperlink looks when you
select “View Amendments.”
6.
To
view amendments simply click the title page of the AIL you wish to view and it
will display in your browser.
7.
To
delete an AIL simply delete the title page and the corresponding folder.
