1. They either haven't bothered to read the Notams

3. Unlike the RAF helicopter units who actually bother to phone me and ask about the Notam
I am really looking forward to going back to teh same job next week
In their defence 4) Their mission planning system failed to display the notam for whatever reason. Not entirely impossible, not saying it's what happened though!
