Default New FSS Policy

Whenever I filed a flight plan (probably twice in the past 6 years?), it

was
in GMT/Zulu/Universal time and not in local time. That's when my dual
timezone watch comes in handy...


I have a watch with dual time zones that has the feature of keeping the
relative difference, between the two zones, unless you make an effort to
change just one zone. Is yours, by chance, like that?

Not to question your fault (or lack thereof), in this FUBAR. The 'guberment
(or private 'guberment) is capable of screw-ups on it's own, with no help
from you. g

Let's hope that this is the worst they do with the new system. This problem
can be quickly corrected. One quick law suit (by a lawyer who does not have
to pay a bunch to file it) for mental anguish because his/her spouse thinks
the significant other has crashed, just might do it.

Until then, pad your arrival time a bit?

.... with the effect of delaying real help when you really do need it.

I use a cheap Timex analog/digital watch. The digital is set to GMT and
24-hour format. I only change the analog (hands) in the spring and fall to
the local time. They're available for around $20 on eBay and will last for a
few years.

Did FSS turn back Zulu time too???
