Briefing Sheet Submissions

Briefing Sheets can be used when a temporary change considered operationally significant is submitted to AIS and contains extensive text (exceeding 1,800 characters) or graphics, but there is insufficient time to publish an AIRAC AIP Supplement or an AIC. In such cases, a NOTAM is promptly issued to inform users about the changes. This NOTAM will point to the Briefing Sheet, which contains the full text and graphics detailing the temporary change. For more information, see CAP 1054.

A list of current Briefing Sheets can be found here:

Layout of the Briefing Sheet

The content of a Briefing Sheet is not managed by AIS and is not stored as a database feature. The sponsor must provide the Briefing Sheet in accordance with the templates provided.

Submission to AIS

Completed Briefing Sheets shall be provided to AIS via the Aurora Portal and will be processed during office hours, Monday to Friday, 08:00 – 16:00.

AIS will assign a unique reference number to the Briefing Sheet and will provide the sponsor with a web link to the document, which can be used for reference within the NOTAM.

The sponsor is responsible for raising the NOTAM using their usual proposal method.
