notam-mapper.obliscence.com/ is my AI-powered NOTAM mapper. It parses and maps NOTAMs, and lets you download them as KML (and import into @live_airplanes . It's a small thing, but I find it useful.

#Pilots rely on NOTAMs to disseminate information to provide the highest level of safety in our airspace. We support robust funding for @FAANews to ensure our aviation system remains safe & reliable. Read our letter to @SenatorCantwell & @SenTedCruz alpa.org/-/media/ALPA/Files/…

Excellent piece @_opsgroup "You see, there is already this rather marvelous thing in an airplane – it can watch the pilot, it can monitor aircraft systems, and it can take over no matter what the failure or the complexity of that failure might be… It is called “the other pilot”

This awesome radar loop via @BMcNoldy shows deep convection associated w/ #Isaias quickly precessing azimuthally upshear in real-time & its eyewall is beginning to closing off. This evolution signals a period of intensification, which is corroborated by recent recon measurements.

The plane we flew through #Gonzalo yesterday had been through some stuff. Katrina, Rita, Irma, Dorian.. That’s quite an impressive resume for tail 5304.

Did your 👀 just glaze over reading this NOTAM for the Singapore Changi airport? 👇🏻 For every domestic & intl flight I plan, my pilots & I are responsible for reading what can be 20 or more pages of these NOTAMS. 👁 Thx to @_opsgroup for working thru solutions for everyone!👏🏻

NOTAMs are supposed to provide critical information to pilots, but often they contain unnecessary or unhelpful information. On this week's episode of AvTalk, we talk with @_opsgroup founder Mark Zee about his efforts to reform the NOTAM. link.chtbl.com/bkFfj464

Perhaps the best resource for those of us exposed to true global reach on a daily basis. I NEVER go flying without cross-referencing this site with applicable NOTAMs. #airlinepilot
