That said, a large part of the motivation for publishing these documents online is that the mistakes I have made can be reported and corrected. Therefore, if you notice anything wrong, please email me at doc-errors@hursts.eclipse.co.uk and I'll put it right ASAP.
The new format FCOM in XHTML format. It should work on any device with a web browser. I mainly test it under Firefox and Chrome, so those are probably your best bet. I occasionally also check it works in IE and Safari. I don't own any Android or iOS devices so testing on these depends on borrowing them from colleagues on airport standbys (thanks to all who put up with this!).
The FCOM is Airbus copyright and Airbus has many scary lawyers. Access to this FCOM can therefore only be granted under "Fair Use" rights to those that have access to other transformations of the same data: this boils down to being an easyJet pilot. To get access please email me from your easyjet.com email account at fcom@hursts.eclipse.co.uk.
To allow offline use, the search facility runs in your browser, not on the server; please be patient the first time you use it online as it will be downloading a 1.3MB index file into your browser's cache — subsequent access should be instataneous.
The latest version has a surprise and delight feature. If you Ctrl-Click a DU covering a subset of aircraft, it will switch to the DU for the next subset. If you press the Shift key as well, it will switch to the previous subset. This helps when trying to work out what the difference between variants is.
There are also a couple of access keys implemented: 'P' for Previous, 'N' for Next; this allows reading of contiguous sections without having to reach for the mouse.
A set of notes covering major airbus non-normal events. The initial version was notes made during my type rating at CAE, but they have since been heavily updated from the FCOM, QRH and experience in the simulator. They are not quite complete, but most of the interesting stuff is now covered.
Throughout the notes, you will see comments like this: "{TODO: What does this mean?}". If you know the answers to the questions, I would be very grateful if you let me know!

A summary of parts 1 to 8 of EOM-A version 2.16 with additional information from EOM-B (Airbus) version 3.5 and CSPM version 2.9. This started off as the notes I made for my command course, but has recently been almost completely rewritten.

An very preliminary set of notes covering technical details of the airbus. These notes mainly reflect the CBT from CAE, but are gradually expanding to include the more detailed stuff from the FCOM.

A bit esoteric this one, but it may save someone the trouble of writing this code themselves. This is a python module that extracts data from an AIMS detailed roster plus my own front ends. I use this to extract my roster for my diary and to automatically complete my logbook. You will need to know the python programming language to make use of this.
