Key Takeaways:

Jeppesen ForeFlight has introduced ClearNOTAMs to simplify the challenging task pilots face in interpreting complex, abbreviated Notices to Airmen (NOTAMs) for pre-flight information.
ClearNOTAMs uses AI to translate raw, coded NOTAMs into plain English summaries, conveying their operational impact and helping pilots understand information more efficiently while retaining the option to view the original text.
The application features customizable filters, sorting, and pinning options to organize NOTAMs effectively, and will be offered with a three-month trial before becoming available on ForeFlight's higher-tier subscription plans.

One of the most challenging parts of being a pilot is gathering “all available information before a flight” as required by regulation.

This is especially true when it comes to sifting through information dispersed in the form of Notices to Airmen (NOTAMs). Jeppesen ForeFlight is trying to make obtaining and understanding the information easier with ClearNOTAMs, an app that takes the raw NOTAMs, delivered in all capital letters and abbreviations, and decodes them to allow a pilot to sort them by relevance to the flight.
