What documents should the PM have if EFB is not secured?

In the event that the Electronic Flight Bag (EFB) is not secured, it is essential for the Pilot Monitoring (PM) to have printed paper copies of navigation documents. Having physical copies ensures that the PM can reference critical information such as navigation charts, approach plates, and other necessary operational documents, which are vital for safe flight operations.

Digital documents can be convenient, but they rely on electronic devices that may fail or become inaccessible. Therefore, pilots are trained to carry physical backup copies of important navigation documents in scenarios where electronic versions are unavailable. This practice is crucial for maintaining flight safety and compliance with regulatory requirements, as access to navigation information is critical during all phases of flight. Other options do not provide the comprehensive documentation needed for effective monitoring and decision-making.
