VFR Flight Plans

[mikey]

Do we still use the "old" form for a VFR flight plan or did we finally go to the ICAO form? I thought we had but the FAAST website (AIM) still shows the old style.

Here's a link to the FAA website with the current status for filing flight plans. Basically it says you can still use the standard Flight Plan format for domestic flights but you must use the ICAO format for international flights. The FAA is in the process of transitioning to the IACO format for all flight plans but so far they have not set a drop dead date for the old format for domestic flights.
