- sidewndr46 1y agoNo? You can call in as a pilot and issue a NOTAM if you want to. You can phone up the relevant air traffic control center and issue a NOTAM as well. You might do this if you saw something unusual like a plane in controlled air space that was flying in a dangerous manner. Or if you were doing something in uncontrolled airspace that could still be a hazard, so you report it so other's can adjust for it.
- euroderf 1y agoSounds like an invite for every 12yo kid with an Estes rocket to call the local ATC, just to probe the system in a spirit of inquisitive co-operation.
- sidewndr46 1y agoAs long you're making true reports you're more than welcome to. You should look up the airspace restrictions in the area you will be launching in to ensure you are using unrestricted airspace.
- euroderf 1y agoIt's great when a kid can find out that heck yeah there's these huge systems somewhere out there that keep complicated stuff running fabulously.
