EFB Rollout
16,000 iPads purchased for MAF Aircrew:
••
MAF: AMC, AFRC, NGB, PACAF, USAFE
Aircrew: Pilots, Navs, FE’s, LM’s, Booms, FA’s & CSO’s
All CONUS MAF units have received iPads & Cases
ADPE entering tracking info into AIMs
Operations provisioning the devices
Developing plan for AE units

Definition of Electronic FlightBag
AFI 11-215, USAF Flight Manuals
“Electronic Flight Bag—is an electronic informationmanagement device that helps flight crews perform flightmanagement tasks more easily and efficiently with lesspaper. It is a general purpose computing platformintended to reduce, or replace, paper-based referencematerial often found in the aircrew's carry-on Flight Bag,including the Flight Manual, AFIs, and NavigationalCharts.”

Unclassified Technical Data is one of eight sub-
categories of Sensitive information
FOUO and Privacy Act Information are separate
sub-categories which Aircrew Flight Manuals are

Flight Manuals Sensitive?
Unrivaled Global Reach for America … ALWAYS!26
Are we OK putting FMs on theiPad?
Paper Flight Manuals
• No requirements for positive control
• No reporting procedures if the information is lost
Digital Flight Manuals (current)
• No password protection or encryption
• 16k aircrew x 1 flight/mo x 12 mos = 208,000 DVDs/yr
• Data viewed on personal computers for home study
27
iPad as EFB: Better Security
Standardized viewable platform
• No need to migrate information to home computer
8-character passcode to unlock device
• 256-bit AES encrypted when locked
• FIPS-140-2 certification in works
Configuration controlled
90 day audit
Signed user agreement
Ability to track, lock or wipe if lost
Non-compliance results in decertification

Onus placed on DataOriginators
Information owners challenged with having to provide
classification determination
Decision often defaults to the most conservative control
out of fear of reprisal
Group consensus successful, but difficult to get anyone
to put it in writing
Taking GO-level involvement to solve
Unrivaled Global Reach for America … ALWAYS!29
Future Challenge:Apps
Unrivaled Global Reach for America … ALWAYS!30
Is there an app for that?
Attractiveness of iPad was the ease in which apps could
be tweaked
• Short implementation timeline
• Free updates
• Feature focused
PDF reader, weather app…there are dozens out there
Ask developer to add feature
Ask developer to provide an Enterprise-only version
Mission specific apps…internally develop
Unrivaled Global Reach for America … ALWAYS!31
App Purchasing & Contracting
App store? App approval?
How do we buy apps using the current system?
• Current contracting process is not efficient
Man-hours/resources for RFP/Sole Source of $0.99?
Adobe Pro vs GoodReader: 16,000 copies
• Adobe Acrobat Pro at $105/ea = $1.68M
• GoodReader App at $4.99/ea = $79.8k
• App has 95-97% cost avoidance, with free updates
