Gleim 2006 FAR/AIM Now Available

Gleim's FAR/AIM 2006 is now available.

A great feature of Gleim's new 2006 FAR/AIM is that it is now Flight bag size - smaller, more compact and lightweight measuring 7" x 9" inches.

Gleim's FAR/AIM consolidates the Federal Aviation Regulations (FAR) and the Aeronautical Information Manual (AIM) into one easy-to-use reference book. We provide an expanded FAR index and an expanded AIM index.

Most books create additional work for the user. In contrast, Gleim's FAR/AIM simplifies and facilitates your effort. The text format, bigger and darker type, indentations, two-column structure, and spacing are designed to make it easier to read, learn, and understand.

A comprehensive FAR index in front of the book and AIM index at the back of the book make it easier to find pertinent portions of the FARs and/or AIM than do government indexes.

NEW!! The 2006 Gleim FAR/AIM now includes all SFARs, as well as all new additions and changes to the Federal regulations.

The 2006 Gleim FAR/AIM Product Features:
Flight bag size - smaller, more compact and lightweight (7" נ9") book
Expanded and easy-to-use indexes for both the FAR and the AIM
SFARs now included!
A comprehensive reference for all pilots
NTSB Part 830 also included
Full color AIM images

FAR/AIM is part of the Gleim Private Pilot Kit and is essential for student pilots.

2006 FAR/AIMs to be Released

The 2006 FAR/AIMs 2006 are scheduled to be released in early October, 2005.

The FAR/AIM 2006 handbooks present the latest civil aviation directives gathered from the Federal Aviation Regulations (FAR) and the Aeronautical Information Manual (AIM) for pilots, flight crew, and aviation maintenance technicians.

All aviation regulations that have changed since the last FAR/AIM release are precisely marked and indexed to provide a clear listing of subject matter and to refer pilots and staff to the correct paragraph or regulation number.

The FAR and AIM sections are reproduced in reset type for easier reading, and the AIM features detailed, full-color graphics. A suggested study list is provided, along with a helpful list of the addresses and phone numbers for the FAA, National Transportation Safety Board, National Ocean Service, and Flight Standards District Office.

Various pilot supply company's, like Touch & Go Pilot Supply, are currently taking pre-orders for the 2006 FAR/AIMs.
