FORMAT EXPLANATIONof SYSTEM NOTAM

NOTAMN- New NOTAM
NOTAMR - Replaces a previous NOTAM
NOTAMC-CancelsaNOTAM
NOTAMS - SNOWTAM (see page 41)

NOTAMiormat item Q is dividedinto eight separatequalifierfields,

a. FIR - ICAO locationindicatorplus "XX" if applicableto more lhan one FlR,

b. NOTAM CODE - For NOTAM code decode see page 33. l{ the subject of the NOTAM (second and
third letter of NOTAM code) is not in the NOTAM Code , the following letters should be used to
referencethe subject category.

QAGXX = AGA QCOXX = COM QRCXX = RAC QXXXX = Other

c. TRAFFIC- l=lFR
V=VFR
IV = IFRA/FR

d. PURPOSE - N = Selected for the immediate attention of aircraft operators

B = Selectedfor prejlight informationbulletins.
O = Operationally significantfor IFR flights.
M = Miscellaneous.

e SCOPE- A=Aerodrome
E = En route
