Filing direct with GPS
Depends on where you are and the traffic load at the time.
Twenty or more years ago, long before GPS, when I went from central PA to Dulles or DCA, I filed "Direct" to an intersection just north of those fields and got it about 70 % of the time. I was never asked how I was able to make that direct fligh. (I just followed a radial emanating from DCA or IAD.) vince norris
