2022 FAR/AIM, destined to be a classis!

  • By Brad the student pilot from Walnut Springs TX USA on Tuesday, April 19, 2022
  • Pros: It has the information you will be asked about on your check ride. It is required by my flight school.
  • Cons: It is heavy enough to break the straps on your Jeppeson student book bag.
  • Review: Hands down - this is the thriller of the decade! With plot twists and turns, characters being introduced at a lightning pace, and a surprise plot reversal at the end - this will keep you riveted for weeks as you pore through the details. Don't pass this one up folks, it's destined to be on the top of all best-seller charts by this spring.

    Spoiler Alert: The good guys win, again!

Best thing I've ever read

Excellent Source of Information for Pilots !

  • By Rolf from Columbus IN USA on Wednesday, October 25, 2017
  • Pros: Everything a pilot needs to know is there
  • Cons: At times tedious to read (not PowerPoint presentation style)
  • Review: I purchase this book every year to keep up with FAR changes.
    While it is at times tedious to read, the information is useful and can also be used for recurrent training, e.g. study everything you need to know about instrument approach procedures. This is a reference source for serious studying; it is not as entertaining as taking an AOPA on-line safety course

Get It Now!

  • By David from Mauldin SC USA on Monday, September 18, 2017
  • Pros: Full of good and useful information
  • Cons: Written by lawyers in the most complicated legal language
  • Review:

    Excellent with the updates.....love it.

    I have always liked the FAR AIM. I just wish it was not written in such legalese language! Makes it hard to interpret and understand. It should be written in simpler language - i.e. "common English" so both US and foreign students can understand (and comprehend) it easily. The pictures and graphics, especially the ones in color, are great....

Couldn't put it down! Awesome book for the whole family!

  • By Mark from Woodstock GA USA on Tuesday, September 25, 2012
  • Pros: It's all there for the looking.
  • Cons: It could effect your weight and balance.
  • Review: I was totally blown away by the 2013 FAR/AIM! It's a thrilling read cover to cover. I dazzled over 61.57 and was absolutely enthralled with the exciting descriptions found in 91.155. My heart was so full of joy after reading 2-1-x and 2-2-x in thier entirety. Then, just when things were looking bright, I was deeply saddened to learn of the bad times expressed in 7-1-28. But, after viewing figure 5-1-1 and reading 4-1-13, my spirit soared once again.

Everything You Need to Know To Stay Safe and Legal !

  • By Rolf from Columbus IN USA on Monday, December 12, 2016
  • Pros: All Information In One book
  • Cons: Not Always Easy To Find Specific Details (Index)
  • Review: Very useful information : everything one needs to know to be safe and legal. The AIM portion of the book will not always provide all the details on a particular topic (example : intricacies of equipment codes in ICAO flight plans), so some additional research may be necessary, but it certainly covers the main points on anything a pilot needs to know

Does what it promises

  • By Dreaded from Shoreline WA USA on Wednesday, October 17, 2012
  • Pros: Comprehensive current reference for virtually all (federal) regulatory information for pilots.
  • Cons: It's more than 1000 pages long, but what do you expect for a comprehensive reference for aviation regulations.
  • Review: This is a comprehensive reference for CFR 14 & 49, plus some additional materials (previous known as the Federal Aviation Regulations and Airman's Information Manual). If you are a pilot, and the regulatory information is not in this reference, you almost certainly don't need it.

  • Pros: Valuable information

  • Review: I'm pleased to see there is at least now an eVersion of the FAR. I look forward to see the FAR/AIM available entirely in an electronic version. I try to keep a current copy of the FAR/AIM on hand every year, and I have cause to look something up at least once every year. So it "pays" for itself in that sense, but it is not something I'm going to lug around everywhere I go. Unlike an electronic version, which would/could be available for use nearly 24/7.

Because 2 copies must be better than 1

  • By A Customer from Franklin TN USA on Monday, October 21, 2013
  • Pros: 2 copies at 1 price, carry your tablet rather than the brick
  • Cons: none really, if you plan to keep up with FAR/AIM anyway
  • Review: The FAR/AIM "is what it is". I can't imagine anyone enjoys reading it, but we all need to keep up with it.
    That being said, I liked the option to get the printed copy bundled with the epub edition.
    Now I can keep the info handy on my tablet without lugging the printed copy around for those moments when I need to look something up.
    I can keep the printed copy in the Oval Office for those other "reading opportunities".

    the interpretations that come out of formal discussions. Not your fault, but just the
    way our government does things. Thanks JHP

E-book was not what I expected

  • Review: I purchased the printed book in addition to the e-book. The printed book is what was expected, so no problem there. The e-book came in e-pub format, which I didn't expect. This was my fault as I just didn't look closely enough to the description (which said it was e-pub format) but I wanted a PDF as I don't have any way to read e-pub format material.

Need current regs for the checkride

  • By John from Grand Rapids MI USA on Thursday, October 22, 2020

Who else but the FAA could write such a tome where almost every paragraph starts with “No person shall . . . “ ? Personally, I find reading such stuff slightly less painful from paper, instead of from a screen.

Latest in the series...

  • By Donald from Washington, D.C. on Thursday, December 05, 2019
  • Pros: Use of acronyms.
  • Cons: Vague language.
  • Review: Although a dense tome, the plot drags in many places. I expect this book will be widely read despite its many drawbacks.

Good book - Fair Condition

  • By Brandon from Atlanta, GA on Tuesday, September 19, 2017
  • Pros: Cheap Price
  • Cons: Not new condition
  • Review: The outer cover was bent at the corners and the book itself seemed warped as though it had been left outside in a damp environment. Overall it wasn't bad enough to return and I've always had good experiences at My Pilot Store prior to this so I'm still satisfied.

  • Review: I just realized that the eFAR PDF eBook exclusively contains information that's available for free on the Internet. Now, I feel stupid for paying $5 for this PDF.

Good book, but not in new condition

  • By A Customer from Creve Coeur MO USA on Wednesday, March 13, 2013
  • Pros: Excellent customer service
  • Cons: Product shipping and quality substandard
  • Review: The book is as expected - the FAR/AIM.

    When I ordered the book, the first time it arrived, the shipping box was empty and torn apart - someone must have really wanted my FAR/AIM. Mypilotstore promptly reshipped another FAR/AIM. Downside the second time is that the book came worn. It wasn't anything more than an cosmetic problem, so I just kept it. Not sure what happened there. These issues may not be directly mypilotstore's fault, I am just commenting on the experience.

Store should handle the new items more carefully

  • By Tony from Buena Park CA USA on Thursday, October 24, 2013
  • Pros: Price and deal was fair
  • Cons: Book cover was damaged
  • Review: I received it on time, but the book condition is not good although it's brand new item. Store should handle the shipment more carefully without damaging the book cover whether in warehouse or during any shipment processes.

Paper beats pdf

  • By A Customer from Milwaukee WI USA on Sunday, October 25, 2020
  • Pros: Paper doesn't fail in-flight.
  • Cons: Electronic version isn't terribly useful.
  • Review: The dead-tree version gets 5 stars. The electronic version gets one star.

    Bought this set ahead of my checkride, as my printed FAR/AIM was 4 years out of date. The printed version was just as expected, and I tabbed it out on the relevant sections I might be quizzed one. The electronic version? Meh, give it a pass. .pdf files can be superb if properly bookmarked by the creator (the scan of the 5th Ed. D&D manual floating around on certain sites, for example), but this one merely has a single page clickable table of contents that directs to the various FAR parts. That's all. And the .pdf is just FAR, no AIM section. Save your money, just buy the print version.

Missing Some Stuff

  • By matt from Auburn CA on Tuesday, February 14, 2023
  • Pros: Heavier pages allow for the use of highlighter pens
  • Cons: Now missing some very important regs (Part 135)
  • Review: Sadly they have removed the 135 operations so if you want to study for that, then don't buy this one. Okay for initial ratings, but if you want commercial and above then this is not helpful at all.
    Gleim continues to sell a more complete version.
    Does not stay open like the Gleim version.

OUT of Date.

  • By Daryl from Mount Vernon TX USA on Tuesday, September 27, 2016
  • Review: I accidentally ordered this product about 2 weeks too early, and then the 17 FARS came out. Of course Mypilot store didn't bring up the fact I just wasted the money on this one...

Damn Goverment

  • By A Customer from Jerseyville IL USA on Monday, December 09, 2013
  • Pros: None
  • Cons: Many
  • Review: I am a private pilot. 19 yrs ish. The AIM/FAR as I recall was less than 600 pages then. Now 1000 plus pages. Our lair in chief should be REQUIRED to read and comply before boarding Air Force One again.
