Hello everyone,

I’m probably just missing something, but how do you file a Y or Z flight plan?

Thanks!

VATSIM's infrastructure doesn't currently support Y (begin IFR, switch to VFR) or Z (the other way around) flight plans.

To fly a Y flight plan, file as IFR, and put "VFR" in your route at the point where you intend to transition.
