It has been a while since I've filed a VFR flight plan but I have always assumed, and as I understand from what other UK based posters have said, that if you have filed a VFR flight plan into an unmanned airfield and do not turn up unless you have nominated someone to initiate overdue action then nothing will happen...
So I don't understand why the question even arises; why would someone want to cancel a VFR plan since if you have no nominated person nothing will happen, if you are late and the nominated person initiates over due action then cancelling the flight plan will not stop that anyway and if you land at an airfield with an ATSU then they will close it for you...
