To expand my earlier rather flippant remark, yes I do find LASORS rather turgid and hard to read, but I know BEagle is right and that it is the result of a lot of hard work. It's definitely worthwhile having the information in one place. As it says near the front:
The aim is to give pilots a one-stop reference for all aspects of safe aeroplane operation.
However, it is inevitably a rather legalistic text. For the relatively small flying community, it probably isn't worth the effort of a complete rewrite into an easy-to-read "Highway Code", although the foreword says:
If it can be enhanced to make the whole book more valuable to the pilot it will be.
I agree with BEagle that we all had to learn this stuff when to got our licences, and ought to stay current with the information. But many of us may not be as familiar with the contents of LASORS as we should be. PPRUNE seems to me a great place to ask for advice, and for more knowledgeable people to give pointers to where to find information in LASORS when appropriate.
