What's Tabbed & How It Works
Our tabs cover the regulations that come up again and again — in ground school, on the written, and across the table from a DPE.
Not every single regulation is tabbed — the goal is to highlight the most important and most-tested regulations without overcrowding the book. Each tab covers one regulation or a condensed set of related regulations.
Color Coding
Tabs are color-coded by category: General (Private) Pilot regulations, Instrument, Commercial, CFI regulations, and AIM chapters. Inside the front cover of each book, we place a color guide explaining the system for that particular book.
How Many Tabs by Version
- Private Pilot — 50 tabs
- Instrument — 50 tabs
- Commercial — 50 tabs
- Private + Instrument — 75 tabs
- Private + Instrument + Commercial — 75 tabs
- Certified Flight Instructor — 75 tabs
- CFI + Instrument — 100 tabs
Note: fewer tabs doesn't mean fewer regulations. Where possible, multiple related regulations are condensed onto a single tab to save space.
Other FAQs
- Are Parts 135 or 121 included?
No. ASA does not print Parts 135 or 121 in the FAR/AIM. Those are found in the FAR-FC, which we do not currently offer a tabbed version of. - Can I pick which regulations get tabbed?
Our tabs follow a standardized layout based on ASA's study list. Custom tabbing is not available. - What book is this for?
This product is for the 2026 ASA FAR/AIM only. Tabs are sized and positioned for that specific edition and will not align correctly with other editions or publishers.
