Genius 747
One small piece of information before you get confused by this ....
Flight following is an obsolete term, replaced a few years ago by 'Class C' radar service.
However, as with many obsolete terms, Flight Following is still very much in use.
Just thought I'd mention that in case you read a new text book and wonder what is going on
I'm out in FL for the week and would love to have a fly, but am too busy at work
Enjoy Socal!
