The guide mentions Standard and VFR FF. When I set up a flight plan and connect to MSFS, I don't see anywhere to tell the application that the flight is VFR. Am I missing something? many thanks for any help!

If you're using the MSFS flight planner the default type is 'Direct VOR to VOR' and results in a VFR flight plan... the other options, low altitude and high altitude, will give you an IFR flight plan. Whichever plan you have you can, once connected to FS, tune to FSS and toggle the flight plan type using Hotkey #6

I don't know if my memory is getting worse as I get older...
...I just can't remember how it used to be!
