The production of NOTAMS worldwide is a problem. Lets hope what the FAA are doing is adopted by CASA as WBP. I am however not holding my breath. I shudder to think of the NOTAMs that will be issued when Nancy Bird Walton Airport is open for business. I learnt a lesson very early on in my airline career to never query the status of a navaid before having another look at the NOTAMs. Unfortunately, particularly for the Metro driver, the hidden NOTAMs now include that the whole foccacia airport is closed. I remember quite a few years back that a Metro operating to a regional airport in Annaland also landed when a NOTAM had been issued for a closed airport. Fortunately in that case it was only for the repainting of lines on the runway.
