When information is disseminated about a taxiway closure, it will be located in?

  1. FDC NOTAMs.

  2. NOTAM (D) distribution.

  3. Airway NOTAMs.

  4. Pilot reports.

The correct answer is: NOTAM (D) distribution.

The correct option for disseminating information about a taxiway closure is located in NOTAM (D) distribution. NOTAMs, or Notices to Airmen, are issued to alert pilots of hazards or changes that may affect the safety of flight. Specifically, NOTAM (D) entries relate to significant airports and their facilities, including any information regarding taxiways, runways, and navigational aids that are essential for the safety and planning of flights. Taxiway closures, which can affect ground operations significantly, are considered relevant information to pilots navigating in the vicinity of airports. This information ensures that pilots are aware of any closures before landing or when taxiing. FDC NOTAMs are generally reserved for information related to changes in flight procedures or regulations and not specifically for taxiway or airport facility closures. Airway NOTAMs focus on airspace uses and related route changes, rather than ground operations. Pilot reports, while valuable for real-time information on conditions, do not serve as official notices for planned or temporary road closures like taxiways. Overall, NOTAM (D) distribution is the appropriate source for such critical operational information.
