2004 eFAR Federal Aviation Regs For Your Pocket PC

[Ed Hansberry]

<a href="http://www.mypilotstore.com/MyPilotStore/sep/2150">http://www.mypilotstore.com/MyPilotStore/sep/2150</a><br /><br />Pilots should be interested in this ebook. "The Federal Aviation Regulations just went from being a three pound book that you need to lug around and compensate for on your weight and balance calculations to something that can be carried anywhere."<br /><br /><img src="http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/images/hansberry/2003/20031101-faabook.gif" /><br /><br />Contents and publications included, but not limited to: <br /><br />• Aeronautical Information Manual (AIM) <br />• Aviation Weather (FAA AC 00-6A) <br />• Aviation Weather Services (FAA AC 00-45E) <br />• Pilot's Handbook of Aeronautical Knowledge (FAA AC 61-23C) <br />• Instrument Flying Handbook (FAA AC 61-27C) <br />• Stall and Spin Awareness Training (FAA AC 61-67B)<br />• Medical Handbook for Pilots (FAA AC 67-2) <br />• Pilot's Role in Collision Avoidance (FAA AC 90-48C) <i>(Pay attention to where you are going and don't read this book while flying)</i> ;)<br />• Aircraft Weight and Balance Handbook (FAA-H-8083-1) <br />• Airplane Flying Handbook (FAA-H-8083-3) <br />• Plane Sense (FAA-H-8083-19) <br />• Student Pilot Guide (FAA-H-8083-27) <br /><br />The cost is $18.95. Apparently you can install just the parts of the manual you want. No size is given but I suspect you'll need a meaty storage card. It requires MobiPocket Reader.

Looks quite handy.

In case there's any pilots out there interested, I actually made a PDF of the AIM from the FAA site: http://www2.faa.gov/ATpubs/AIM/index.htm

The PDF turned out to be 13.6Mb, and I keep it handy on my storage card....

I'm no pilot, but I *am* an avid flightsimmer and aircraft nut [check my sig pic] - plus I'm an absolute E-book fanatic, so I can definitely see the appeal in this for interested pilots and simmers.

OK, due to requests, the AIM PDF is here:

hope some of you find it useful!

I guess this means we the passengers can also use our PDA's in flight...

Kinda depends on the airline and flight crew. If you turn off wi-fi and such, and put it away during takeoff and landing [wouldn't want it flying around the cabin] then I think you can safely use it - as long as you're not the person flying the plane of course :D

Thank you very much for making this availible.

I have an off topic question for you. Can you please tell me how to make a website into a .pdf thank you.

I've been waiting for the 2004 FAR AIM to come out. Hopefully I being going for my check ride before Christmas. This is most helpful.

Abobe Acrobat 5 allows you to 'crawl' a part of a web site and generate a PDF from it. This is the full version, not the reader.

Its very handy for archiving old websites to a PDF too.
