NOTAMs are one of the most under appreciated, but most important aspects of preflight preparation.
Most pilots may feel comfortable with their ability to interpret NOTAMs, however, there's always a few that perplex even the most seasoned pilot.
This book was written to help the fledgling aviator develop an understanding of the NOTAM language.
And also to address the needs of experienced pilots who can always benefit from learning some of the more obscure aspects of aviation related terminology.
With this book, all pilots will be able to understand virtually any NOTAM they confront in seconds with the simple flip of a few pages. Instant access to virtually every NOTAM contraction in use is a promise this book delivers. Associated page references then lead to many examples of NOTAM's in action. All pilots will completely understand Distant NOTAM's, Local NOTAM's, and FDC NOTAM's.
Pilots can inspect example NOTAM's which will further enhance their understanding of this complex terminology.
