AM I to resend a fp if I enter incorrect information originally, such as destination, waypoints, altitude, waypoints?

 

Thank you.

Yes please. The only other thing to keep in mind is that once a controller has changed your flight strip, it's locked to changes by the pilot. You won't get any kind of error message -- it will look like it went through just fine. But the controller won't see any changes you've made.

The work around to this - and this usually works - is by disconnecting, reconnecting, and refiling. I would not use this if you need to change something like a cruising altitude, since that's a pretty simple fix and you wouldn't want to override anything changed by a controller. If you are completely changing your route, destination, etc., then I would refile.
