At the Academy Tower, NOTAM information is posted in the ___.

• A. flight strip remarks section
• B. Status Information Area
• C. NOTAM logbook
• D. Daily Shift Change Log

Answer: (B)

NOTAM information is a live, critical update about airport operations that can affect runway use, lighting, equipment status, or airspace restrictions. It needs to be visible to the whole tower crew, updated promptly, and easy to reference during operations. That’s why it’s posted in the Status Information Area. The flight strip remarks section is tied to individual flight strips and mainly holds notes specific to that aircraft, not general notices for all operations. A NOTAM logbook is a historical record rather than a current display. The daily shift change log is for handover notes about who’s on duty and notable events, not for disseminating ongoing operational notices. By placing NOTAMs in the Status Information Area, controllers and staff can quickly verify current conditions before coordinating arrivals and departures.
