Anyone experiencing problems with this? Aside from the ADIZ and TFR crap.
I filed an IFR from LVK to SAC yesterday via duats and the clearance never came
available. The tower told me that only about half of the flight plans filed via
DUATS come up.


I have filed IFR via DUATS departing RHV about a dozen times in the last
few months during my instrument training, and have never had one not
be available. I have also found that release times are much more expeditious
when Norcal is expecting you. One caveat is I try to allow at least an
hour between filing and departing. Both IFR and VFR flight plans seem
to require about an hour to "trickle through" the system.
