What are NOTAM’s?

I was at a very small airport and it says that NOTAM’s are active. What does NOTAM stand for and what are they?

NOtice
To

Simply defined: A Notice to Airmen

“A written notification issued to pilots before a flight, advising them of circumstances relating to the state of flying.”

Look up “NOTAM Definition” to find it :)

NOTAM’s are used when an event is happening, or the airport is full. There are several reasons why it is used. @DiamondGaming4 & @Daniel14 Have covered what it stands for. ;)
