Narrative:

Oops! I put in a commercial chart revision 2 days prior to the effective date and checked to keep the current plates until their expiration. While flying the whitewater departure out of cvg, after a controller query about a missed turn, I realized I was using the departure plate that would not be in effect until mar/xa/01. Murphy's law! No conflict occurred, but that's not the way I like to operate an aircraft.
