Flew my first SID

If you file No SIDS/No STARS you'll get the same route, they
will just read you a full route clearance. Saying No
SIDS/No STARS just means you don't have the chart or text
description.

I generally file them if available and if I can remember the DUAT
procedure to enter them. I kind of like being able to have some idea
what to expect on departure and arrival.

Yikes. I flew my first SID within 21 minutes of getting my IFR ticket.
Flew a STAR on the way back from lunch, about an hour after that.
