Hi Flypy,

Thanks for these comments.

At the risk ask of thread drift I have more general question about flight planning.

When flying VFR I'll normally submit a SAR time but not a full flight plan. The SAR is less effort and I don't see any advantage in having a full plan, in most cases. If I know I'll be speaking to ATC, say for a Bass Strait crossing, I'll lodge a plan but otherwise, no.

Is there anything I'm overlooking here. Do the ATC guys and gals have preference as to what I do?
