ANNEX G to
LAA ET NAVIGATION EVENTS GUIDANCE NOTES
DATED 7 Mar 2012
CAA NOTAM PROCEDURES - SUBMITTING A NOTAM
It is a CAA requirement that all air users should be advised of unusual air activities that might be hazardous. Events such as an LAA ET NavComp may include a large number of aircraft operating in a closed area which is worth publicising in the form of a Nav Warning. That does not deny the airspace to other users but just tells them something is going on. If the airfield operator wants to require PPR for the period of the event a second submission entitled Requirement for PPR for XXXXX (airfield) is the easiest way
The event director should notify the CAA using the format below at least 28 days before the event by sending an email to . The email follows a specific format which is summarized below:
