    Thanks for this video Don! You used a NOTAM that I asked about last week in the video (Camrose, Alberta). Helped me to understand what I was reading.

      Glad you found it helpful, Jeff! BTW, Drone Pilot Canada takes all the nonsense out of this process, by displaying drone-applicable NOTAMs right on the map, with a partially de-coded explanation of what it is, in local time.

    FYI not all forest fires in Canada have associated NOTAMs. Wildfires in Canada have a 5 nautical mile restriction at all times anywhere. Even when a NOTAM is not posted.

    Hi Don. I use your awesome app but I found a great website for everyone about METAR and NOTAM in layman's terms but my comment seems deleted by youtube each time i provide details. Hope this one sticks.

      Actually that term is applicable in the US only. In Canada, it's still Notice to Airmen.

    Newbie here, so I am confused a little. How, what where, and when questions.
    So I see an area I want to fly in, how do I find out where I am and how to access the Notam to that area?
    How do I get a Notam book or link to the Notam web, so I may access the info?
    Do you already have a practical video on real-life use out in the field before flying?
    Thank you for your great work btw.

    • @DonJoyce

      Hi Kal! All this aviation stuff can be very confusing, so don't worry. The great news is that a lot has changed since I published that video. Most importantly, my Drone Pilot Canada app now displays applicable NOTAMs right on the app's map (answering your where question) and clicking on it gives you clear information about the NOTAMs applicability. Here's the video describing this feature: ua-cam.com/video/FBoQg4xkN94/v-deo.html . The Nav Drone app also shows NOTAMs but offers little/no guidance on what they mean. There is a Nav Canada website for NOTAMs...it should be in the description of the video.
