Description

PilotFAR / AIM is the premier aviation reference app for the iPad and iPhone/iPod Touch. This new release is free to download and preview. If you enjoy the app you can purchase the FAA regulations on a per-update basis, OR as an automatic subscription.

Here's what Aviation Speaker/Trainer Rod Machado has to say about our apps:

"I had a chance to download the PilotFAR/AIM, PilotE6B/WX and PilotPrep apps and have been exploring them. What fantastic apps they are! The FAR/AIM is just too darn easy to use. When I’m looking for information, I need the ability to perform a quick search and the PilotFAR/AIM app makes this incredibly easy to do. Instead of slugging through hundreds of pages of FAR/AIM info, I simply type a word in the search window, and retrieve the info. And I can even email an AIM or FAR excerpt to myself or a fellow CFI. I really like it. "

-Rod Machado

Ben in San Diego ,

Can’t always rely on this.

I love the UI, though as others have mentioned, searches can be erratic at times. I used to rely on this as a sole reference source. But my confidence has been shaken by just too many instances of finding the references in here are outdated and superseded. For a while they flagged changes with a hot link to an official e-source before they updated their entries. That was fine by me, but I haven’t seen it happening lately. If I have to keep checking with FAA or Cornell Law sites to be sure I’m reading the latest, it kind of defeats the the utility of this app.

Best of the FAR/AIMs!

I’ve been using Pilot FAR/AIM (also includes Pilot Controller Glossary) for probably 7 years (or more). I have NEVER had a problem with it. I spend no more than 30 seconds using keywords to find a subject matter I need refreshing, to answer a question I might have, or to settle a FAR/AIM/PCG argument I’m having with a fellow colleague. All pilots believe they’re 100% right on all topics all the time, until proven wrong. So is it wrong to always be happy to to prove I’m right? Thanks for making this app so easy for me to prove I’m a know-it-all!

By the way, our EFBs at work unfortunately have a similar product made by Lawstack...and it’s horrible. Buy this FAR/AIM app instead :)

Pros and Cons

This app has a nice search engine (when it works) and will find areas of interest with just a few words. The words don't even need to be in order. The problem is that when you search for 10,000 feet - it will see the comma as a separator and search for any passage that contains "10", "000", or "feet"

There is no way to know what's changed in the regulations. When it updates, you get no feedback as to where to locate changes. This means you need to read the entire regulation on a regular basis and try to memorize passages, so you can recongize the changes

The app will try to update in flight. It doesn't check for a connection to the server before suggesting you update.

It asks you if you would recommend the app. I always answer no. If I want to recommend an app, that's my business and not the developers.
