How do you submit a NOTAM?
wrote in
ups.com:
New to aviation and I would like to know how to submit a NOTAM. I
plan to launch an unmanned free balloon a few months from now with
a payload of scientific instruments weighing less than 4lbs. The
projected flight-path will take the balloon only through CLASS G
and A airspace (and maybe Class E). According the FAA, an unmanned
free- balloon with a payload less than 4 lbs does not require
prior notification before launch. However, I think it would be
prudent to submit a NOTAM.
I was Chief Engineer at a radio station many years ago. Whenever our
transmitter tower lights went OTS, I called the nearest Flight
Service Station and explained the situation. A NOTAM was issued.
