Graphical NAVAID NOTAMs

NAVAID NOTAMs are displayed as a graphical overlay on the map or chart to assist in navigation. The NOTAMs are displayed using the applicable NAVAID symbol, which are color-coded using the following classification:
- Red – Out of Service or Withdrawn
- Orange – Limitations
NAVAID NOTAMs that will become active in the future are displayed in yellow, and the upcoming visibility range is configurable between 3 and 48 hours.
To view NAVAID NOTAMS:
- From the Map or Flight Plan page, select Overlays from the map layer icon
- Select NOTAMs to enable the overlay
- Use the Radial Menu and select the NOTAM segment for more information
NOTAMs may also be viewed by selecting the NOTAMs widget in split screen mode.
NOTAM Overlay Filtering
