I'm still not clear on the exact procedure for position reports if you
are flying VFR over long distances without flight following. To whom
do you report your position, and what information should it include?
Which positions do you report and how often?


Flying in southern British Columbia (outside the radar environment
around Vancouver-Victoria), I will use flight following if I am high
enough. This is not always practical (there are areas where 10500 feet
is too low) so I will call FSS whenever I come near another FSS or RCO
with a position report. I always file a flight plan. There is a lot of
remote territory around here.
