FAA Updates NOTAMs

10 February 2025 By Seth Miller Leave a Comment

SUBJECT: NOTAM TERM CHANGE FROM NOTICE TO AIR MISSIONS TO NOTICE TO AIRMEN EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY, THE TERM NOTICE TO AIR MISSIONS (NOTAM) IS BEING CHANGED TO NOTICE TO AIRMEN (NOTAM), AND THE TITLE OF FAA ORDER 7930.2 IS BEING CHANGED TO “NOTICE TO AIRMEN (NOTAM).” ALL DIRECTIVES/PUBLICATIONS REFERRING TO FAA ORDER 7930.2 MUST BE UPDATED AS SOON AS PRACTICABLE TO REFLECT THE ORDER’S TITLE. FAA ORDER 7930.2 WILL BE UPDATED AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE TO REFLECT THIS CHANGE.

The NOTAM system is in desperate need of update. Simplification and clarification, identifying the more critical reports while deemphasizing others would improve safety. That’s not what is happening.
