The above Notam has been removed and replaced with the following:

U2254/20 NOTAMN

E) FAIRFORD MIL ATZ ACTIVE, AD, RWY 27/09 OPEN.

+1 hour on the times for local.

High power engine runs were reported after midnight and with this amendment and reduction in Notam duration it looks like a mission may have been aborted.

Some VHF frequencies for you also;

Tower - 124.800
Ground - 121.175
ATIS - 135.4583

Dragon Ops has been reported on FC as both 337.75 & 337.85. Is anyone could clarify, that would be appreciated.
