Any of you use "No dips no Stars" in the remarks section of the
flight plan? All comments appreciated, pro and con.

A DP or STAR will make the clearance shorter and easier to copy. Why make
life more difficult?

Having said that, I have received several DP's which simply say 'climb to
2000' and then expect radar vectors to XYZ'. I never understood why such a
simple procedure warrants publishing a DP.
