I'm sure a lot of us stop reading a NOTAM when we see "ALL UNMANNED ACFT SYSTEM (UAS) FLT OPS ARE PROHBITED...", but that could get you into trouble. In the NOTAM below, manned aircraft restrictions are tagged on to the end of the NOTAM.
I seems to me that manned aircraft restrictions should come first since the also apply to UAS, and additional UAS restrictions should be at the end.
