Guest newflyer Posted September 26, 2005 Share Posted September 26, 2005 Anybody know of another way to check NOTAMS besides DINS (notams.jcs.mil)? I've got my T-1 Nav check tomorrow and DINS has been down since yesterday. Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest SlowN'Low Posted September 27, 2005 Share Posted September 27, 2005 https://www.notams.faa.gov/ -- I used it this morning for the same reason... Although, you probably already checked, so sorry I couldn't reply earlier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TheBobGoat Posted September 27, 2005 Share Posted September 27, 2005 where are your classmates to tell you the answer to that question ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mule Posted September 28, 2005 Share Posted September 28, 2005 Typical USAF checkride...the kid shows up without NOTAMS because the site is down and they are toast. I know, I know...he/she didn't say they were taken down, but how many of us know of someone in "check section" that would take the poor kid down. Lame...

Guest Rainman A-10 Posted September 28, 2005 Share Posted September 28, 2005 I've been wondering about NOTAMs, too. I keep looking for the reams of paper hanging from the wall in base ops. I can't seem to find them anymore so I just press and hope for the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest newflyer Posted September 28, 2005 Share Posted September 28, 2005 All turned out OK. I talked to the FSS (800 WXBRIEF), they were pretty useless. But the best was notams.faa.gov, same exact page as the jcs.mil. To add to the pain, the network on base was down, no wx, no ahas/bam, and still no freakin notams. Nothing on checkride morning was business as usual, but it all worked out. Thanks to all who offered advice/help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest WildBill Posted September 28, 2005 Share Posted September 28, 2005 1800WXBRIEF useless? I'm not sure what kind of crack is getting dished out in T-1 land, but FSS or duats.com will give you EVERYTHING YOU COULD POSSIBLY WANT I'm quite positive. Of course, you probably have to remember to ask for NOTAM D, L, and FDC NOTAMS if you want them to give ALL of them and not just local ones.

Vetter Posted September 28, 2005 Share Posted September 28, 2005 So I guess you didn't hook? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest newflyer Posted September 28, 2005 Share Posted September 28, 2005 It isn't necessarily the service that was useless it was the employees that get ticked when you ask them to do their jobs. A pet peeve of mine anyway. I didn't have time for the full out brief and just wanted an abbreviated brief, especially NOTAMS. Whatever, its over now. No Vetter, I didn't hook.
