Paul,

If I'm VFR, do I need to file a VFR flight plan even though I'm not
landing in Canada?


KROC, where I'm based, wouldn't give you VFR flight following if you
weren't on a flight plan. (Everytime I mention that on this newsgroup, a
bunch of people tell me I'm crazy, and then one or two people mention that
it's the same at their airport too.) So I've never tried to cross the
border without being on a flight plan, either VFR or IFR. I got my
instrument rating 3 or 4 years ago, and I haven't tried to cross the
border VFR since then, so I don't know if that's changed.

Also, since I fly an experiental A/C, are there any other requirements?


No idea.
