When I was in groundschool at a Part 121 scheduled airline, I think I was the only one in class with the Jepp edition of FAR/AIM. After looking over my roommate's ASA edition, I could see why. I decided I liked it much better than the FAR/AIM from Jeppesen. ASA seems to be the choice of the professional pilot.For some reason, Jepp has gone to a crazy 8.5" x 11" format for 2002. This book was already big enough without making it bigger! Also, if you need Part 135 -- beware -- the Jepp edition does not include it. ASA uses a two-column format for the FARs that I think is much more readable than the single-column Jepp format. Jepp also includes a few editorial ads for other products in the text, which seems really cheesy (ex: advertising Jeppesen Weather Services in the middle of the weather section of the AIM).
