Does anyone know if the Google Map (METUTIL NOTAM) site is down permanently? Or if it has moved elsehwere? I haven't been able to access it for three days, and want to avoid going to the NATS one of I can help it, as I am grey enough already.

You could try this as an alternative for now but it's not as clean as your one...

Flight Planning Map: UK | NOTAM Info (http://notaminfo.com/ukmap)

The one you linked to is run by eharding (http://www.pprune.org/members/71749-eharding) - you could try PMing him.

There is of course SkyDemon Light as well :}

It was working one day this week but now seems to be down again, shame really as i like it and find it very handy for free and much better than notaminfo. com

Apologies all - and thanks for the SMS Mono - Google are withdrawing the particular technology stack that the map has been running on, and the migration path they're proposing has been typically Googlish - fine if everything works, Fraggle Rock if it doesn't.

The various maps have been migrated to a new URL, I'll look into why the redirection from the old URL isn't working as advertised over the weekend.

In the meantime, the new URL for the EGXX map is here:

UK 48-Hour Notams : Warnings and Restrictions (http://metutil-clone-hrd.appspot.com/static/maps/NotamMap_EGTT_EGPX_2DAY_WR.htm)

Excellent!! Thanks for that - it's a superb site. :-)

Will you be able to post the final website address here for us please?

It's the one just there ^^^

What isn't working yet is the redirect from the old site for folks who have the old URL stored. Just change your bookmark for the new one.
