Call it what you want, but the form on top says FAA Flight plan.

1.Type is either VFR or IFR.

If you select IFR, you are filing a IFR flight plan. No grey zone about
it, all you are doing is fudging the system to get a plan routed to ATC.

Suppose what you say is true. So what?

That box on the form should read: "Send flight plan to ATC? YES/NO".


VFR flight plans are not routed to ATC period.


But that's not the kind of flight plan under discussion.
