Re:IPad gets approval from FAA to replace paper flight chart... by kjhjnmkmnb on Monday March 07, 2011 @11:30PM (#2299825)
Ships also have much more space to store and use charts - it's difficult to unfold a full chart in a small aircraft

Ironically there was a US submarine that hit a reef recently - which was NOT marked on the paper charts it carried. It was on the electronic charts which are updated much more often
