There's no reason to put an altitude in when you're OTP. ATC knows you
may need to change altitudes for clouds, winds, etc.

I tried it and OTP is accepted. However, I then tried OTP/125, and that was
also accepted, as was VFR/125 (for FF). I just had the order of the
subfields switched in my head. Apparently nothing has changed.

Try just OTP. The actual altitude is not needed.

I used to use DUAT to file flight plans for VFR Flight Following and VFR
On Top. Not long ago, they changed their software. Now I can't get it
to accept an OTP flight plan. Haven't tried FF.

Example: Yesterday I filed an IFR plan having altitude field of 125/OTP.
It rejected it. It accepted 125 for altitude, but I had to put "VFR On
Top" in Remarks.

Anyone else have this problem with DUAT? I haven't tried DUATS.
