Hello ppruners,
Can somebody PLEASE help us with this - we'd be very grateful!
I'm writing from a small (but aspiring) FBO based at two airports in the UK. We don't have SITA, AFTN or suchlike so how should we submit flight plans that we do on behalf of pilots?
Is there a way of submitting them directly through the CFMU website? We use the 'structured editor' on said website to check for mistakes in our flight plans, but there doesn't seem to be a way to then lodge them in the system.
Until recently we faxed them to the tower, but they haven't got time to correct any mistakes; secondly they're only really doing it because they're nice, not because they have to, and thirdly the acknowledgement comes back to them rather than us.
How do other small FBOs, or for that matter small charter companies, do their flight plans?
Thanks!
Jimbo
