Necessary purchase

  • By Gehrig from Columbus GA USA on Friday, December 16, 2016

Very comprehensive

  • By A Customer from Washington on Tuesday, September 19, 2017
  • Review: It met my expectations and more. It is difficult to follow an inquiry through all the sections. I was after info on removing 3rd class medical denial so could be cleared recreational flight

E-book was not what I expected

  • By Mark from SacramentoCAUSA on Saturday, March 15, 2014
  • Pros: Printed book was as expected - nothing to go wrong there
  • Cons: Didn't care for the e-pub format e-book - not a problem if you want e-pub
  • 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.

    I have tried downloading a couple different e-pub reader applications, but don't care for them and wish I could have just received a PDF.

Compound confusion

  • By James H from Abilene KS USA on Wednesday, March 30, 2022
  • Pros: Gives direction for pilots and especially students
  • Cons: Difficult to read and often to understand
  • Review: As a CFI it is necessary to have a current copy of the FAR/AIM for reference and discussion with students and BFR customers. Works well for that, HOWEVER, I have never been son confused with some of the government's form of writing and then
    the interpretations that come out of formal discussions. Not your fault, but just the
    way our government does things. Thanks JHP

Should be in every serious pilot's library

  • By Lloyd from Montgomery AL USA on Tuesday, October 20, 2020
  • Review: I think it is time for ASA to make this a two volume product--split between FAR and AIM.
    Any idea would be to give a choice on the FARs between a Part 61, 121, or 135.
    It is getting to be just too big and heavy!!!

Need current regs for the checkride

  • By John from Grand Rapids MI USA on Thursday, October 22, 2020
  • Review: What can I say - it’s the FARs. Great reading if you have insomnia! Required reading for pilots - especially students. 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.
    The print is very good, and the binding seems solid.

Too big and heavy!

  • By Lloyd from Montgomery AL USA on Monday, September 29, 2014
  • Review: As usual, a great deal for the price but would like to see it (regs) published without Part 121, 119, 121, and 135.

Accurate Description

  • By A Customer from Ozark MO USA on Wednesday, November 11, 2015
  • Pros: Ample information
  • Cons: Copy, paste, and print. Here are the rules.
  • Review: I asked for the 2016 FAR/AIM rules, and that's what I got printed on paper much like a Bible... Really cheap paper.

binding too close to page contentr

  • By CURTIS from Pryor OK USA on Thursday, February 02, 2017
  • Review: More margin needed between inner page content and stiff binding, causing book to not stay open .. having to turn it over to keep your place between using it is aggravating and cumbersome. Binding need to be more flexible. Best fix would be to produce with looseleaf spiral binding.

A must for every pilot

  • By Brian from Humboldt IA USA on Thursday, August 15, 2013
  • Pros: Vast amount of information in one package.
  • Cons: Vast amount of info. Sometime it takes some hunting. Add tabs for quick reference.
  • Review: I wish I would have bought this when I got my private. Great to answer questions instead of relying on hanger talk. It would be nice it had tabs for frequently referenced sections such as Abbreviations/Acronyms -- I added my own. A couple of the pages did not fold and bind properly and were partly unusable...I just looked the info up elsewhere.

I will buy it again

  • By Henry from Louisville KY USA on Friday, September 02, 2016
  • Pros: it works
  • Cons: it works
  • Review: As an older pilot craving paper printed items, it suits my needs. I wish someone would take the time to create an annotated index to find these faster, but my grandkids would just say, Paw Paw that's called a searchable pdf.
