In theory, you should be able to file a single IFR flight plan that
covers your entire flight, with delays at each intermediate point. I
just filed the following with DUATS:

In practice, however, I think you will find it simplier to just file a
separate flight plan for each leg. It seems to be what ATC deals with
best (at least around here). My guess is if I actually called up the
tower to get my clearance, I'd just get a clearance to IJD and be told
I'd get the rest once I got there.


Most of the time when I hear people on the radio who have tried this it has
not worked and the controller will admonish them to not file "the round
robin" but to file each of the legs separately. That is what I do and never
had a problem.
