Filing VFR Flight Plans + Customs online ?

[noblues]

Anyone know if its possible to file an ICAO VFR Flight Plan online and submit a customs form the same way ?

Depends what country you're in - give us a clue!

Flight Plans - Germany and I believe Belgium they can be done online. UK is a definite no - fax or phone to your local FPRS (numbers in the AIP or the excelent 'GETMET' booklet)

As for customs (UK, can't say about anywhere else) up until recently it was no - but I read somewhere the other day that the CCU at Ipswich (which now covers the whole country) wil accept notification by e-mail
