With the 87th edition of the NFL player draft slated to kick off tomorrow in Las Vegas, a notam has been issued for transient general aviation aircraft bound for the city’s three main airports this weekend.

Taking effect on Thursday at 6 a.m. local time, the prior permission required (PPR) program calls for operators to obtain a PPR number from their intended FBO at Harry Reid International (KLAS), Henderson Executive (KHND), or North Las Vegas (KVGT) airports. The Las Vegas Tracon-issued notam will remain in effect until 4:59 p.m. on Sunday, May 1.

“This PPR program will provide the FAA, airports, and FBOs situational awareness of the operation and confirm the availability of parking and operational services,” said Dean Snell, senior manager of NBAA’s air traffic desk.

He noted that flights destined for KLAS can obtain their PPR number directly from either the Signature Flight Support or Atlantic Aviation FBOs upon making their reservation, while operators heading to the area's two dedicated general aviation airports can receive it through their online reservation systems. That number should be included in the filed flight plan under the remarks section.
