Narrative

WHILE PREPARING AN ACCIDENT PREVENTION PROGRAM FOR USE BY ACCIDENT PREVENTION SPECIALIST; FSDO #62; (COLUMBUS; OH); I LEARNED THAT CLASS 2 NOTAMS ARE AVAILABLE FROM THE SUPERINTENDENT OF DOCUMENTS ON A SUBSCRIPTION ONLY BASIS ($66/YEAR); NOT INDIVIDUALLY. I AM ATTEMPTING TO OBTAIN COPIES OF THE OSHKOSH FLY-IN/CONVENTION NOTAMS RELATING TO ARR/DEP PROCS AFFECTING OSH AND SURROUNDING ARPTS. THESE DOCUMENTS ARE TO BE PART OF A HANDOUT FOR THOSE PLTS PREPARING TO ATTEND THE OSHKOSH CONVENTION FOR THE FIRST TIME. I HAVE CONTACTED MGR; ACCIDENT PREVENTION PROGRAM BRANCH; GA AND COM DIVISION; OFFICE OF FLT STANDARDS AT FAA NATIONAL HEADQUARTERS TO DISCUSS POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS AND FUTURE AVAILABILITY. W/O THE TEXT AND GRAPHICS CONTAINED IN THESE NOTAM'S in hand; A FIRST TIME PLT ATTEMPTING TO ENTER THE TFC FLOW CAN QUICKLY BECOME PART OF THE PROB WITH THE CTLRS AND EXPERIENCED PLTS PROVIDING THE SOLUTION. IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT CLASS 2 NOTAM'S (AT LEAST FOR SPECIAL EVENTS SUCH AS THE OSHKOSH AND SUN'N'FUN FLY-IN'S) BE MADE AVAILABLE FROM THE SUPERINTENDENT OF DOCUMENTS ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS TO ASSURE FLT SAFETY. THE DAYTON; OH AUTOMATED FLT SVC STATION MGR AND SUPVR PROVIDED PHOTOCOPIES OF THE CLASS 2 NOTAM'S ISSUED JUNE 10; 1988 (20 PGS) PERTAINING TO THIS EVENT. IT WOULD IMPOSE AN UNDO EXPENSE ON THIS FSS (AND OTHERS) TO COMPLY WITH REQUESTS FROM OTHER PLTS FOR COPIES OF THIS DOCUMENT.
