mcjohn said:To open it you'd have to file it first. I wouldn't file in the air. That what 800 wx brief is for. I have my students file a VFR flight plan for X-C and then request flight following. If consistently unable to recieve flight following then I tell them they should open in the air by calling the FSS freq.
I have question. What is the difference in the ATC protocol and handling of the aircraft on a VFR flight plan as opposed to using flight following successfully. What differences would one notice on in flight communications?

Senator Kennedy spent two hours on the phone to get a search going for JFK Jr when he disappeared on an unfiled VFR flight.mcjohn said:Thanks ya'll. But that kind of makes me think about whether or not its worth it file a VFR plan considering that so many people forget to close them.
