FAA seeks to raise Airline Pilot Standards

[le Pingouin]

You quite definitively claimed FAR wasn't mentioned in AIM, yet it was. Here's another reference to the FAA using it:

FAA Regulations

• Federal Aviation Regulations (FAR)
  • Air Carriers & Operators
  • Pilots, Flight & Ground Instructors
  • Commercial Space Transportation

Regulations & Policies

And from the same page:

• Look up FARs

If you'd care to search the FAA website you'll found 100s of references to FAR & FARs, including many very recent documents.

AirRabbit, time for you to indicate a reference for your claim that FAR doesn't mean what everyone else here thinks. Thus far Google is as definitive as you've got. Give us an official document that specifically says Federal Aviation Regulations are not to be referred to as FARs.
