A VFR Flight Plan is a document filed by pilots flying under Visual Flight Rules (VFR). It provides essential information about the flight, including the route, estimated departure and arrival times, and the aircraft's details. This plan helps air traffic control monitor the flight and ensures safety by keeping track of aircraft in the airspace. Filing a VFR Flight Plan is not mandatory, but it is highly recommended, especially for long flights or when flying in unfamiliar areas. It enhances safety by allowing search and rescue operations to be initiated if the aircraft does not arrive as planned.
