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.

Richie Lengel.
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.

Here.....this is all you need.

Understanding the FARs
􀁻 Section I - No mechanic or mechanics, pilot or pilots, or person
or persons acting on the direction or suggestion or supervision of
a mechanic or mechanics, pilot or pilots may try, or attempt to
try or make, or make attempt to try to comprehend or
understand any or all, in whole or in part of the herein mentioned
Aviation Regulations, except as authorized by the Administrator
or an agent appointed by, or inspected by, the Administrator.
􀁻 Section II - If a mechanic, pilot, or group of associate
mechanics or pilots becomes aware of, or realizes, or detects, or
discovers, or finds that he or she, or they, are or have been
beginning to understand the Aviation Regulations, they must
immediately, within three (3) days, notify the Administrator in
writing.
􀁻 Section III - Upon receipt of the above-mentioned notice of
impending comprehension, the Administrator shall immediately
rewrite the Aviation Regulations in such a manner as to eliminate
any further ease or likelihood of comprehension.
􀁻 Section IV - The Administrator may, at his or her discretion,
require the offending mechanic or mechanics, pilot or pilots to
attend remedial instruction in reading Aviation Regulations until
such time that said mechanic(s) or pilot(s) is (are) too confused
to be capable of understanding anything.

I'm sure it is not as inclusive or detailed as some people might be looking for, but it is a good starting point.

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

Don't know why I need to lighten up Dougdrvr.
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.

I would NEVER attempt to goad a Marine (I've had enough fractures). Some of my best friends are with the FAA (but I wouldn't want my daughter to marry one).

A former Marine, now working with the FAA.
