NOTAMs

Plain-English NOTAMs.
Free.

AirState decodes NOTAMs into plain English and puts each one next to the original. No subscription tier, no trial that runs out. Decoded NOTAMs are part of the free app.

Real NOTAMs

What comes in, and what you read.

These are real FAA NOTAMs, decoded by the same code the app uses when you load this page.

The original stays the authority

The FAA text is one tap away on every NOTAM. The decoding helps you read it. It does not replace it.

Nothing made up

The decoder follows fixed rules. It does not guess. When part of a NOTAM does not match a rule, AirState marks it as partly decoded and shows that part as written.

Fixed without an update

Decoding runs on our server. When you report a bad decoding from the app, the fix reaches everyone without waiting for an App Store release.
