And of course you can be flying along VFR without a flight plan and
request flight following anytime during that flight and it will show
up on flight aware when ATC issues a transponder code for ya... YMMV

Which is still a flight plan, albeit an abbreviated one as is a pop-up
IFR.

A VFR flight following event is nothing like a pop up IFR pick
up.... * You really are not a pilot are ya ???

In your quest to be a smartarse you failed to read what I wrote and only
succeeded in revealing your ignorance. *Congratulations.

VFR flight following and a pop-up IFR both require a flight plan to be
loaded into a FAA automation computer which is how the discrete beacon code
is generated. *Now you can argue that point if you wish, or continue to
manufacture mistatements which I never wrote, or continue to make
allegations to whether I am not a pilot, but you'll still be just as wrong,
so be my guest. *I've forgotten more about the subject than you will ever
hope to know.- Hide quoted text -
