More to the point, when was the last time most of you chaps, QF or otherwise, read the AIP, or Jepps with respect to STANDARD CALLS ?
I cringe every time i hear on tower freq" XXX Tower, ABC is established on Localiser approach for RWY zz "
ANd you chaps that constantly chat on 121.5!!! I think enuff has been said here before regarding that. It always amazes me though, just how quick someone always is to pipe up with "On Guard" when some poor B@stard has a finger fault.

I think that a lot of the problems are because valid and important stuff can be lost in amongst absolute waffle that has no useful application whatsoever.
Here's one of my favourites from Cairns.
AMD AIP ENROUTE SUPPLEMENT AUSTRALIA RWY DISTANCES SUPPLEMENT EFFECTIVE 09 JUNE 2005 PAGE RDS C-1
DELETE SECOND REF TO RWY 15 APPROACH GRADIENT
INSERT RWY 33 1. APPROACH GRAD RWY 33 IS BASED ON 180M INNER EDGE AND 3.7 CLEAR GRAD TO THR.
CRITICAL OBST TKOF RWY 33 IS BUILDING 11FT 100M FM END OF CWY 100M E OF RCL
FROM 06 250639 TO PERM
Now, this stuff is all very nice, but at the preflight stage where every second can count (particularly after Xray scan, depart terminal via airbridge, don green jacket and orange ear protection, walk to flight planning) I really couldn't give a rats!!!
Multiply this by (sometimes) 30-odd pages and your eyes start to glaze over.
No excuses for missing an important NOTAM, but I can certainly understand the circumstances behind it.

Maybe the Rat Flight Ops should employ a Communications manager/expert. This person could be responsible for improving the flow of important information to/from crews. NOTAM presentation and streamlining the bookcase-load of manuals would be just a start (the second-most commonly heard phrase on a Rat flight-deck would have to be: "where is that written?"). Such a person would have expertise in communication theory and how to cut out the noise that interferes with getting info through.
Oh, hang on, we've already got such a person... editing a glossy mag and trying to work out why we're not engaged! Nothing against the individual concerned, but surely the person's talents could be better used by management for the good of the operation??
And they wonder why our ASK cost is what it is......

Moderate, Modest & Mild.
It seems to me, that Dicko is missing a big opportunity here to do what today's modern airline management enjoy most - creating another department, with more "managers" (those highly paid employees who help contribute to reducing the number of revenue producing staff).
In JAL, I'm certain there is an entire department dedicated to dealing with NOTAMS.
Allow me to explain a recent event that convinced me of this.
Many airports in Japan have their own "unique" weather factors - sea fogs, depending on the wind direction; windshear - also dependant upon which quadrant the wind is blowing from; 180 degree wind direction swings below 1,000 (with wind strength going from say a 25 kt tailwind, to a 25 kt headwind).
Sendai - north of Tokyo is one such airport that offers us ALL of the above, frequently.
A couple of months ago, I was on approach into Sendai (SDJ), and naturally looked for the windsock.
There was none - it was gone.
After arrival, I went to the company briefing office and asked them about the windsock, "Where is it?"
"It's gone - out of service for 1 month."
I re-checked the NOTAMS, thinking that I must have missed it - however, SDJ was listed as "nil NOTAMS".
Nor was it on the ATI.
A Captain's Report was made to the company, advising them of this obvious oversight - information that I felt pilots should be aware of.
To my amazement, I received a reply from the company advising me that a NOTAM had been issued, but that the company didn't feel it was important enough for pilots to be given!
Apparently all NOTAMS are "vetted" by the company (undoubtedly by a non-pilot - and more than likely by some little girl who has been employed for no more than 6 months), and then graded into 6 levels - only the first 2 are thought worthy enough of passing on to the pilots! (And you were wondering HOW a JAL aircraft could land on a closed runway in Tokyo, weren't you?! The "vetter of NOTAMS" probably thought THAT NOTAM was also unworthy of the crew's attention!).
Recently, JAL introduced a system whereby NOTAMS (the ones they let us see) newer than 1 month are highlighted.
Prior to that, they had categorised them by usage of asterisks,
* within the last 6 months
** within the past 3 months
*** within the past month

When will the powers that be sit up and listen to us Pilots. After all, we are the ones that have to read and translate the pages of information given to us.
I am yet to fly with anyone who thinks that the current format is the best it can be.
During my flight this morning the comment was made regarding a Mod to Sev turbulence sigmet that the grid references that are provided are not appropriate as they need to be plotted on the chart to see if our track will inflict this zone. Once again, something that takes a good deal of time during the pre-flight. Would it not be more user friendly if the sigmet read area bounded by towns A B C D and E.
I think it is fair to say that there is no single solution that will please everyone, but I do believe that if the system doesn't please anyone, then it needs to be altered.

My favorite SYD NOTAM TEMPO OBST TREES INFRINGING
MERLIN the BOM also publish a map plot of SIGMETs so you
don’t have to join the LAT/LONG’s.
I would like to see some degree of priority to the way the NOTAMS are listed.
IT would be helpful if they could put all the OBST at the end for eg; and group
other thing together, such as lights. Perhaps this would make sorting through
20 pages of NOTAMS in the 5 mins left before the walkaround.

Bloggs,
I think its still a Trial Graphical Sigmet presentation on our flight planning web page. Its very good, shows the boundarys and you just print it off. Contact BOM if you cant find it.

cobber74:
And you say you're a B767 pilot with QF? Can you please let me know when you're flying next so that I can make sure I'm not a pax on one of your flights!
havent read a NOTAM in years....
Nunc est bibendum
QSK, given cobber's comments in other threads, I think the following most aptly describes what he or she is.
As these are anonymous forums the origins of the contributions may be opposite to what may be apparent. In fact the press may use it, or the unscrupulous, to elicit certain reactions.,
