The published notice for air missions (NOTAM) is part of this procedure and is intended to inform about the operational decisions applied. The situation is known and assessed by the responsible authorities and services,” – earlier 15min commented Martynas Jaugelavičius, spokesperson for Lithuanian Airports.
