FSS "8" still has me choosing an airport (last flight had me tell ATC to ammen my plan to land at airport "8FD2" which as best I can tell does not exist, according to airnav.com and does not show on the GPS map).
8FD2 is Flying Horseman Airport, which may now be closed. It was replaced (?) by nearby 81FL, which is listed on Airnav. The airport must be in the PF3 database as 8FD2, as PF3 gets its data from the sim. It is about 9 miles east of your first waypoint, KGNV. It is uncontrolled, so there is no Tower to contact.
Dave is still recovering but hopefully he will have a look at the logs when he is back. I tried FSS Hotkey 8 on a different route and it seems the airport selected is closest to the next waypoint, and I'm not clear on how this works when in free-flight mode, so we'll need to wait for the boss to have a look.
