Notams and their presentation to airline crew have a lot to be desired. If the incident is used as a wedge to move into 21 century, an applause would be due. But are we surely not wagging the dog here?
My best judgement is that the crew knew rather well they should be landing on the starboard side the deck, and that's exactly what was almost achieved.
The notams change might be a win, but without shining the light on the real cause, the job of preventing the next occurrence has not even started.
