Bracken said the pilot wrote a flight plan but did not file it with federal officials.

If the media reports are correct, they were going from Wilmington, DE to Defiance, OH.gkrangers said:Well...in a straightline...I'm pretty sure Delaware to Ohio = going through the ADIZ.
Fine, a reasonable scenario. But regardless of the reason, this brings up a question I had following the last ADIZ bust. Why do so many pilots seem to not use VFR Advisories (flight following)? I talk-and-squawk on almost every VFR flight. It's a no-brainer, especially in areas with complex airspace. It gives me:transpondersoff said:So possibly trying to please impatient passengers and getting painted into a corner by weather and TFR airspace, one can easily see how the ADIZ can be violated.
