ASA's 2006 FAR and AIM Series
FAR/AIM FAR Flight Crew FAR AMI
ASA has been supplying the standard reference of the industry, the FAR/AIM
series, for more than two decades. The 2006 series continues to provide
information directly from the Federal Aviation Regulations and the Aeronautical
Information Manual, along with these important features:
• Regulation and AIM changes are posted on the ASA website as a free
download; sign up to have Update notices automatically emailed to you as a
free service from ASA
• All changes since last printing are clearly identified
• Includes suggested study list of AIM paragraphs and regulations pertinent
to specific pilot certificates and ratings
• Index includes both FAR and AIM terms to provide an alphabetized listing of
subject matter for quick look-up
• AIM produced with full-color graphics
Each regulation Part is preceded by a table of contents. Changes since last year's
printing are identified on Page v and in the table of contents for each regulation
Part (in bold and marked with an asterisk), as well as within the text for quick
reference (changed text is indicated with a bold line in the margin). In the AIM,
changes are explained in lists at the beginning, and with bold lines in the margins.
It i s recommended you familiarize yourself with all the changes to identify those
that affect your aviation activities.
Changes affecting the regulations take place daily and the AIM changes every
6 months. ASA tracks all changes and offers you two options for FREE Updates:
• Updates are posted on the ASA website that you can download for free
• You may sign up on our website for ASA's free service to have Update notices
automatically emailed to you
You may visit the FAA website (http://www.faa.gov/certification/aircraft/
av-info/dst/default.htm) to review advisory circulars, Notice of Proposed
Regulations (NPRMs), current regulations, and FAA Orders and publications.
You'll find a Reader Response page in the back of this book which you can fill
out and mail or fax to us. We welcome your suggestions and comments, as they
help generate further improvements to future editions.
Although ASA is not a government agency, and we do not write the regula-
tions or t he AIM, we do work closely with the FAA. Questions or concerns can be
forwarded to our attention, and we will in turn pass the comments on to the FAA.
They are interested in user-feedback and your comments could foster improve-
ments in t he regulations which affect the whole industry.

Summary of Changes Since September 2004
Part 43
• This change is the result of the Bilateral Aviation Safety Agreement (BASA) between the
United States and Canada; it a mends the regulations governing maintenance, preventive
maintenance, and alterations performed on U.S. aeronautical products by certain Canadian
persons and removes specific regulatory references and other requirements unique to that
work when performed in Canada.
Part 61
• SFAR No. 100: Allows Flight Standards District Offices (FSDO) to accept expired flight
instructor certificates, expired inspection authorizations for renewals, and expired airman
written test reports for certain practical tests from U.S. military and civilian personnel (U.S.
personnel) who are assigned outside the United States in support of U.S. Armed Forces
operations.
• The second-in-command (SIC) pilot type rating and associated qualifying procedures are
amended to conform FAA requirements to ICAO standards which will allow U.S. flight
crews to continue to operate in international airspace without the threat of being grounded
for not holding the appropriate pilot type rating.
Part 71
• Minor revision to Air Traffic Service (ATS) routes.
Part 91
• SFAR No. 65-1 is removed from Part 91.
• Editorial changes were made (which do not change the intent of the rule) regarding
Temporary Flight Restrictions (TFRs).
• This change removes the requirement for a pyrotechnic signaling device for aircraft
operated for hire over water and beyond power-off gliding distance from shore for air
carriers operating under Part 121 unless it i s part of a required life raft.
• This final rule allows an aircraft operator to transport State and local candidates for
compensation, without having to comply with FAA safety rules applicable to air carriers and
other commercial operators.
• Correction was made to the Subpart K (Fractional Ownership Operations) compliance
date.
• Establishes a new noise standard for subsonic jet airplanes and subsonic transport
category large airplanes.
Part 97
• Section 97.20 is revised.
Part 119
• Adopts the rule published December 6, 2002 which imposed statutory requirements from
the Aging Aircraft Safety Act of 1991 for certain airplanes to undergo inspections and
records reviews after their 14th year in service and at specified intervals after that, as well
as imposes supplemental inspections by specified deadlines in the maintenance programs
for these airplanes.
ASA
Part 135
• Adopts the rule published December 6, 2002 which imposed statutory requirements from
the Aging Aircraft Safety Act of 1991 for certain airplanes to undergo inspections and
records reviews after their 14th year in service and at specified intervals after that, as well
as imposes supplemental inspections by specified deadlines in the maintenance programs
for these airplanes.
49 CFR Part 1552
• The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) announced an Interim Final Rule for
Flight Training of Aliens and Security Awareness Training for Flight School Employees. This
rule places new and significant burdens on flight schools and flight instructors.
The Aeronautical Information Manual major changes are summarized in the
introductory text of the AIM beginning on Page 479.
