Los Angeles (KLAX) Runway 24R Closure

Hello Everyone,

As part of long term construction projects at KLAX runway 24R will be closed starting tomorrow (6/29) through October 19th. Like with other high profile long term runway closures PilotEdge will simulate this closure. Pilots should expect to land on runway 24L if arriving on the north runway complex.

As always if you have a specific need for runway 24R (such as a specific training requirement or testing operations) please let ATC know and we will accommodate that.

And here is the NOTAM:
!LAX 06/177 LAX RWY 6L/24R CLSD 1506290700-1510191400EST
Why the time is listed in EST (which is the opposite of the PDT timezone of LAX) is left as an exercise to the reader. ;)

Doesn't EST mean estimated here?

It does, but at first read it can be confusing, hence my note about it.

I'll stick to my mantra of not understanding NOTAMS.... too many abbreviations ;)

Can this be posted/sticky in the Pilot's section like the rest of NOTAMS?

Believe it or not I actually can't post stickies, hopefully Keith will see this and do so.
