  (3)   The words ' Source    FARs' below a regulation indicate that the regulation is based on the section of the FARs, as in force on 1   January 1997, stated after the words and, if the section number is followed by the word 'modified', the word indicates that the FARs section has been modified for the regulation.

Example:
