DB6 says "Air law is **** , just like all law, there is no logic to it, and it's the one exam where there's no point trying to understand the subject."
President says: "All Air Law is top quality sh+t"

(Leaving aside DB6's daft generalisation about all law ) you both nonetheless ignore BEagle's advice at your peril.

The CAA's approach to testing your knowledge of Air law is, I agree, "top quality sh+t" but it is necessary for your own sake to know those parts of Air Law which are applicable to your area of flying.
Generally, what we quickly cram and learn "parrot fashion" is just as quickly forgotten. By all means, use that approach to irrelevant parts, but only for those parts.

You'll find that professional pilots do actually know their Air Law quite well.
Why? Because safety depends upon us all knowing the rules by which we fly, and, it helps you keep your hard-earned licence!
