POWERFUL SEARCH • Search across all eight document types from one bar • Scope search to the section, part, or chapter you're already reading • FTS5 full-text indexing — instant results, even offline • Type a section number ("61.65", "91.103") and jump straight there

REDLINE: SEE WHAT CHANGED • Toggle redline on any FAR section to see exactly which words were added or removed since the prior edition • Walks the eCFR's amendment history to find the right comparison date • Useful for flight instructors prepping students, A&Ps tracking regulatory changes, anyone curious "what's new this year?"

HISTORICAL LOOKUPS • "As of" date picker — view any FAR section as it stood on a past date • Backed by eCFR snapshots dating to 2017

PILOT-FRIENDLY DETAILS • Bookmark anything for fast recall before a checkride • Long-press to highlight; tap to share with a CFI or examiner • Add notes to any section — your private study annotations • Filter parts by aircraft category (Fixed Wing, Helicopter, LTA, etc.) • Dark mode that doesn't murder night-flight rod cells

100% FREE. NO ACCOUNTS. NO TRACKING. NO ADS. This app doesn't collect data, run analytics, or phone home. It's a reference tool, not a platform. All content is sourced directly from faa.gov and ecfr.gov — public-domain U.S. government works.

Always verify against the official FAA PDF before a checkride or maintenance action. This app is a study and reference aid, not a substitute for official FAA publications
