How are you accessing DUATS? Using web access, I can't find any
option for "be prompted for flight plan". And I searched everything
I could find on DUAT and DUATS and can't find the "delay" feature.



We don' need no skinkin' web interface!


Attaboy. If (collective) you must use a web interface, http://www.enflight.com
is the one I prefer. Some nice formatting of the output from duat.


I just telnet in (telnet 131.131.7.102). If you watch carefully,
you'll notice that when you ask for a weather briefing, the CGI script
that's driving the web application does the same thing!


If (collective) you don't like typing in IP addresses, you can "telnet
direct.duats.com".


On the web, if you scroll down on the main page to the "FAA Flight
Plan Filing" section, then click on the "File" button on the right
hand margin, you'll get to a screen that lets you manually enter a
flight plan. I don't know how to get to the explaination/help stuff,
but it does let you enter the same /DH+MM notation.
