Pilots are required to check for NOTAMs along their relevant routes or locations before the start of a flight. NOTAMs are very important in that they can provide information that can cause a pilot to change their flight plans, such as Temporary Flight Restrictions (TFRs) or an airport that has become temporarily unavailable.
