Another mistake, another lesson learned....
Todays Cautionary Tale.
Having failed to get past Bristol's weather en-route to the Dunkeswell LAA rally today, I turned back to Halfpenny Green (great welcome) and then on again Northeast towards Cannock.
Mistake.
Shortly after t/o called Cosford Approach because they were obviously busy before tomorrows airshow, and found out EGBO is in a 10nm radius notamed zone.
No drama, no bones broken but:
1. I knew Cosford airshow is on tomorrow but missed todays notam
2. I missed todays notam because it is shown by Notamplot as "aerodrome nav warning" not an "en-route"
3 I had not previously realised that aerodrome warnings are displayed only under a second tab in Notamplot.
This is all entirely my responsibility.
Question:what is it about the below that parses it only into "Aerodromes"?
