Federal Aviation Regulations

Federal Aviation Regulations (FARs) are a set of rules established by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to ensure the safety and efficiency of civil aviation in the United States. They cover various aspects of flying, including aircraft design, pilot certification, maintenance standards, and operational procedures. FARs are essential for regulating both commercial and private aviation, aiming to protect passengers, crew, and the public. Compliance with these regulations helps minimize risks and ensures that air travel is safe and reliable. Overall, FARs facilitate the orderly operation of the nation's airspace and aviation activities.
