"Charters the course" (charts the course)

“Band of Brothers is a truly incredible achievement. It charters the course of Easy Company, a band of elite US paratroopers and their involvement in the Second World War.”

Quite a few google hits for this also.
Hard to say if its an eggcorn or just a run-of-the-mill flub… though its COULD be an eggcorn, people thinking of chartering in the same sense that you charter a bus.
