Canadian IFR/VFR Flight Plan

I decline the IFR clearance and decide go VFR. Could I ask ATC to change the IFR flight plan to a VFR flight plan? Or, do I have to file a separate VFR flight plan, and call them back to activate the VFR flight plan? Yes, if you cancel IFR, Canadian ATC will give you the option of changing the rest of your flight plan to VFR. David, I believe that is incorrect. If I remember correctly, you have to file an entire new VFR flight plan. It is not possible to "convert" IFR into "VFR". Some years ago, I flew at night IFR from Regina to Saskatoon, got into icing conditions halfway, turn back to VMC and than had to air-file a complete new VFR flight plan. Gerd Wengler ATP |
