How are NOTAMS selected?

Hi,
I stumbled into a problem while flying in Corsica, but I could reproduce the problem on other planned flights.
I prepared a flight from Calvi (LFKC) to Propriano (LFKO), overflying the coast but also Corte Airport (LFKT), with maybe an stop at Corte.

Looking at the NOTAMS for the planned route, there was no NOTAM for Corte.
However I learned before landing there that the field is closed during the whole summer.
This is reflected by a NOTAM that is only shown if Corte is entered as a departure or landing airport.

Is this the way Skydemon is supposed to show NOTAMS?
I was under the impression that by choosing to display NOTAMS close to my route, a NOTAM closing an airfield should be included.
Am I expecting to much, or did I miss a setting?
Thanks.
PS : this is not hardware specific, it's the same on IPAD, Android or PC.

Hello Tim,
thanks for your answer.
I agree with Chris it would be nice to have (and make the planning safer) if NOTAMS of the aerodromes in the narrow route were included.
I might be spoiled but that is how the french SIA website works.
Moreover, on other website it's possible to add additionnal airports to get their NOTAMS in one request even if asking for the route,
I did not find this in SD.
One idea, would maybe to add it to the contextual menu like there is Find Plates entry, there could be an Add NOTAM menu.
I would even like to have Plates, Weather and NOTAMs in one right click menu entry.
Don't get me wrong, the product is great.
Regards

Pascal
PS: the thing about VFR/IFR was from another user.
