## What is NOTAMs?

There really is no excuse for not consulting the NOTAMs prior to your flight! With this app you don't need one. 

With Notams you can download notifications for your departure, arrival and destination fields as well as notices for en-route fields and various FIRs/Centers. What's more, this works world wide! 

If the NOTAM text contains a coordinate, the App will place flag on a map along with your route. This will instantly show its relevance to your plans. 

New in this version is the ability to decode common Notam abbreviations into plain English.  

You really can't afford not to download this little gem! 

For users upgrading to version 1.1:
I have received some reports that the application will not start after the update. If this happens to you, remove the app from you device and install a fresh version from the app store (you will not be charged). Contact me directly with any questions you may have on roeland@mercatorgeo.nl

### 1/5 — Doesn’t download notams

*2020-10-11*

Agree with the rest of the comments on here, used to be a great app. Obviously not supported anymore as nothing has been done to remedy the issues!

### 1/5 — Broke

It’s a shame but this just doesn’t work anymore. I’m guessing the developers just switched off the server!

*2019-12-31*

App is okay but the big downfall is that it doesn’t retrieve Canadian RSCs or CRFI. Major issue for Canadians or anyone flying to Canada.
