I'm going to talk from the old days. Unfortunately file two flight plans.
The computers tracking your flight automatically cancel your IFR when you
land even at an intermediate airport.

A recent flight planning software package I am trying creates a single
flight plan - say from DSM to Jeffco. Even tho there is a fuel stop in
KLBF, about midway. This is what it wants to file with DUATS.

My question is: I have always thought it was necessary to file two
flight plans - one DSM to KLBF and another KLBF to Jeffco. Is this
necessary? Or can I file a single flight plan? Is the Voyager
software making a mistake?

It probably can be filed that way. You can let it go ahead and file it to
see whether DUAT accepts it. You don't have to fly it just because it's
filed.

Whether ATC will let you fly it is another question. In my part of the
country, probably not. I'm guessing after your fuel stop you'd find your
flight plan doesn't exist any more.

Regardless of what DUAT or ATC wants, I'd want two flight plans.
