How are pilots notified of changes to the FOM?

Pilots are notified of changes to the Flight Operations Manual (FOM) through official memoranda or amendment bulletins, which is essential for ensuring that all personnel are informed in a consistent and formal manner. This process allows for clear documentation and provides a reliable method for disseminating critical updates or changes. The use of official memoranda helps to establish a formal record of communication, which is important for compliance and reference.

This method is structured and designed to ensure that pilots receive important information uniformly, avoiding any potential misunderstandings that could arise from less formal means of communication, such as informal discussions or social media. The reliance on official communications underscores the importance of maintaining safety and operational standards within the flight operations framework.
