Tell them. Just as is the case with icing certification, the controllers are

Wouldn't it look odd if you file /a and request Direct?

Doesn't the GPS have to be en route certified? Heck the Garmin 296 has all
the approaches, but does not have the victor highways that I could see.


I always file /I

What would happen if your clearance got changed en route?

Or does that not happen when you file direct and fly off the airways?
