The long awaited change to NOTAMs is finally happening

[azmedic]

Me as a helicopter pilot does, especially the unlit ones. Remember, it’s Notices to Airmen, not Notices to 121.

Speaking of helicopters…sliding into your DMs

DON’T ASSUME THEIR GENDER! THE FAA HAS DECREED IT!

i stand corrected! Good catch.

I did a :43 minute flight from ATL to CLT. The NOTAMs stretched from the entry door to row 21.

And this is what they change, FFS.

This is why I liked it so much in The Expanse when they call any superior “sir” irregardless of their gender.

That's actually one of my pet peeves in any military film.

I mean, Marines are pretty stupid but most of us can tell the difference between a sir and a ma'am.

Idk, most Marines I’ve seen male or female all look pretty similar

That’s not the NOTAMs fault, that’s your dispatch fault for not providing NOTAMs pertinent to your operation.

Wokeness is everywhere now. Pathetic!


I don’t ever recall flying with a female pilot who said that NOTAMs is sexist.

Technically, its still NOTAM's.

honestly I’m not shocked women don’t talk to you about lots of things

If it wasn’t for this thread I wonder how long it would have taken me to realize this. Excited to start at mainline soon and see what the reaction of some captains will be

Meh, none of you will care in another month.

Remember when “Line Up and Wait” was the end of the world?

I mean the acronym will literally still be “NOTAM” so it’s not like it’s that big of a deal. How many times has anyone actually heard “Hey Chuck,can you pull up the Notices to Airmen for KXNA”. The real discussion should be on the pronunciation… “No-Tuhms” or “No Tams”

I still can’t get a straight answer on why the dispatcher can’t screen out the “SLC EXTERNAL PERIMETER GATE CODES CHANGED EFFECTIVE….” static out of the flight plan.

The only time I could think of hearing it would be over an ATIS

With the proliferation of asshats lately, you can totally say ass here, I’m surprised it isn’t just called notice to asshats or Asshat’s Information Manual.

Or even notice to aviators….

"If a$$holes could fly, this would be an airport."

It's the beards.

That one is important for Jerry and his alternate minimums.

In all seriousness, I think that would be most applicable to rotorcraft. That would be the only change I'd like to see, filter by type of operation. If I'm out in a J3 cub, no reason that I need to know the outer marker is unmonitored, but in a transport category jet, we don't need to know that the entire SFO terminal is showered in cranes. At SFO in particular, if you're on the 28s and somehow get that far off course - cranes are the least of your problems.
