Default How do you submit a NOTAM?

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.


MAYBE Class E? Where do you intend to launch this balloon so that it will
definitely pass through Class G and Class A airspace but perhaps not Class
E?
