Easy way to remember. Take the three pairs of words:
left, right
port, starboard
red, green

The shorter words go together, and the longer words go together. You
could
probably add:
pilot, passenger (or pilot, instructor)

Alternatively:
"Red" and "Right" both start with the same letter. It would sort of
make sense for them to be the same side. Since we're dealing with the
FAA, we can't have *that* sort of logic running around, so switch 'em.

"Red", "right", "returning" works. It refers to keeping the red bouys on
the right when returning to a harbor. (simplified explanation) Doesn't do
much good in an airplane but the boat people did use some logic.
