There is a set of flash cards printed and sold by ASA (the supplies company, not the airline) that highlights important Part 119, 121, and 135 regs. Costs ~$15 IIRC. They also sell similar flashcards for Part 1, 61, 91 and the AIM.

I've heard its really good but this is the first I've heard it's funny. Is it like a Machado book? If so, then I'll probably not get it. Machado has some good stuff in his books, but he tries way too hard to work humor in it that I just get frustrated. His books are great for weekend GA pilots but when I was studying for my CFI/CFII/MEI I found the books far too impenetrable that I just returned them.
I've e-mail a few times with him.
He does work hard to interject humor into what is probably one of the dryness subject matters (Federal Regulations) that you could imagine. Whether it makes it harder or easier for a person to get through, or get important information out of, is probably up to theindividual; but for what I have used the book for it has been very useful.

Lighten up, Flight Check. I was just poking fun at the audaciousness of the title.

Did you think I was mad or something. I simply answer a question and added some additional information.
Sounds like you might be the one a little to tightly wound up.

Sorry.
You are confusing me with the so-called black hats of the FAA. I'm on the 'white hat' side.
Your attempts at goading me are pointless - you will be assimilated.
Better?
Again - I'm sorry if you expected something funny from my previous post, but it is amazed at how offended you seem to be from a simple answer with no contenious tone.
