Industry Awaiting Notam on 5G Ops Limits
The aviation industry is hopeful that through coordination and data-sharing that the FAA will develop a notam that will buffer operations from 5G limits.

Aviation leaders are bracing for a wave of restrictions and potential disruption of air traffic operations at airports in a number of major metropolitan areas as the FAA crafts a notam to implement safety measures surrounding the rollout of 5G in the C-Band. The notam is anticipated to provide specifics of restrictions contained within two airworthiness directives the FAA released earlier this month covering transport- and commuter-category airplanes and another directed at helicopters to address the threat of potential radar altimeter interference from 5G cellular in the 3.7 to 3.98-GHz frequencies.
