You're probably looking for the no-cost option, but let me offer another
option.
Disclaimer -- I'm in no way connected with the company but I've been
using the products for years. Most useful when I'm not near a high-speed
internet connection.
Summit Aviation has a CD product that comes out every 28 days (sound
familiar?) Most of the stuff isn't updated but items such as ADs and
TCDS, and the AIM are included.
Other things on the CD:
14 CFR -- what we know and love as the FARs.
Bunch of Handbooks - the 8083s (weight & balance, instrument
handbook, student pilot guide, etc) and the 8261 - Instrument
Procedures.
Bunch of Advisory Circulars (ACs)
Pilot/Controller Glossary
All the PTS (the 8081 series)
All the TSOs
Knowledge test questions
Legal interpretations
And....
Aerodynamics for naval aviators
And more stuff.
True, most of this stuff is available on the FAAs website. But if
you were going to buy the various books it would cost far more than
the cost of one CD. I update just once a year or so. It's great
when I'm traveling. I get to take all the books with me (and the
laptop only weighs 4 pounds). Best part - EVERTHING is searchable!
As I said, I'm in no way connected (other than by the interstate.
They're on the far west side of the Denver area and I'm on the far
east side...).
Just freaks the FAA and others when I'm in meetings and people are
trying to remember the citation or exact wording and I pop it up
in seconds....
