Air Mobility Battlelab initiative aims to give aircrews newer 'paperless' option
The iRex Iliad e-Reader, a "commercial-off-the-shelf" portable publications reader able to store data and read data from USB-compatible flash drives was the device used by the U.S. Air Force Expeditionary Center's Air Mobility Battlelab at Fort Dix, N.J., for their demonstration of the Paperless Aircrew Publications e-Reader initiative. Through the AMB's work, the reader or one like it is being recommended to help aircrews carry less paper for their flying missions. (Air Force photo illustration/Art Tollefson)
