Avis diffusé par télécommunication et donnant, sur l'établissement, l'état ou la modification d'une installation, d'un service, d'une procédure aéronautique, ou d'un danger pour la navigation aérienne, des renseignements qu'il est essentiel de communiquer à temps au personnel chargé des opérations aériennes. 4, record 2, French, - avis%20aux%20navigants

Dans l'ouvrage de référence de Transports Canada, Secteur aviation, intitulé «Publication d'information aéronautique», qui regroupe les avis adressés au personnel aéronautique, le terme «avis aux navigants» est l'équivalent du terme «Aviation Notice», alors que «notice to airmen» et «NOTAM» se rendent par «avis aux aviateurs» et «NOTAM». Cette différence entre les organismes crée une certaine confusion. Il convient alors, pour le traducteur, de tenir compte du destinataire du texte. 3, record 2, French, - avis%20aux%20navigants
