Hi Veloo, thanks for your answer.Some of us poor chopper guys don't have handling agents, so we have to do everything ourselves, and as you know all those Datuks and Tungkus always change their mind at the last minute, so we have to rush around getting the aircraft ready as well as doing the paperwork! Anyway, is it better to send the fax (mine are always beautifully printed ) to both the tower and ATCC just to be sure?
Presumably with an Internet filing system the plan is entered into the system automatically saving all these problems?
On another related subject; on a VFR flight plan ATC seem to require the EET for every kampung along the way to be included on the flight plan. This does seem a bit Over-The-Top especially when you consider the on an IFR plan only FIR boundary ETEs are required. Is this really necessary? If is really is necessary where are all the required reporting points published?
Keep up the good work!
