Abstract
A method for packing an electronic flight bag (EFB) involves obtaining a route, determining a buffer zone surrounding the route, identifying aeronautical content to be downloaded that is at least partially located in the buffer zone, and downloading the identified aeronautical content from a remote aeronautical content repository to the EFB device. The method further involves selecting, from the downloaded aeronautical content, at least one aeronautical chart, and displaying the route and the buffer zone in the at least one aeronautical chart.
