Horrible app

Nothing in this is helpful. You can get abbreviations from the faa’s website. Does not decipher or decode anything associated with the notam.

NOTAMs

Nothing in this app indicated that it was "contractions only." Needed an app to decipher foriegn notams and this was a huge dissapointment.

Great App

A great addition to the flight bag! I love the ability to type just the first letter and then scroll through the options. Thanks for a great app!

Wow...

Read the description people! It states that this app only provides the definitions to NOTAM's and other common contractions, not the actual/realtime Notices to Airmen!! This app is great for those learning the aviation language and "code". Keep up the good work!

Mid-named

This app does not provide Notams. It only defines abbreviations. It is mis-labeled and probably not worth the money. I think it is actually deceptive advertising.
