At some point you injected the processing of G/A flight plans into the discussion. What you've said about flight plan processing is wrong. What did I way that was wrong Oh Wise One? |

"Steven P. McNicoll" wrote in message news wrote in message ... Not at all. The carriers make sure the skids are greased for their flight plans to seamlessly and automatically transfer from their host to the FAA host. Unless someone wants to manually change a route on an air carrier domestic flight plan, no human is even involved. It all is computed and sent to the appropriate station and the FAA in a timely manner. Flight data processing is done exactly the same for the carriers as any other operator. That's not what he said...he was referring to the TRANSFER of the plan from one system to another (i.e., the carrier to the FAA). |

You need to read his prior messages too. What you choose to take of it all is your way. The issue is filing. Roy Smith has to call FSS or use DUATs. The airline computers *automatically" determine the route for long segments and use canned routes for short segments. Such flight plans are then transferred to the FAA without any human action on the part of dispatch or the flight crew (unless they want to change something). Once such an air carrier flight plan is in the hands of the FAA, it is processed no differently than a flight plan originated by a FSS specialist or via DUATs. I suspect you will have some quarrel with that summation. |

Once such an air carrier flight plan is in the hands of the FAA, it is processed no differently than a flight plan originated by a FSS specialist or via DUATs. That's exactly how it works. All airlines have a direct funnel for their flight plans to get into the system. |

I suspect you will have some quarrel with that summation. Nope. I've never had a quarrel with anything you've posted that was correct. |
