"After 7 years of IFPS operations it's amazing the lack of knowledge people have about the system and all the urban legends that have been created."

Would that then be the fault of IFPS then for not going some way towards educating us?

Furthermore routechecker, I presume it's a computer that checks flight plans for route or syntax errors in the first place. Syntax errors excluded, presumeably any computer that can identify an incorrect routing should also be capable of determining a correct one. Add to this the fact that there are routing programmes available for purchase, why is it unrealistic to expect IFPS to route us the way they would prefer us to go once given Dep and Dest? Wouldn't that solve a lot of problems, and entail less work for those who have to manually check/ammend wrong routes?
