DOT move would allow anyone to follow flight plans

Recommended Posts

Does anyone know whether the proposed change to FAA privacy regarding release of flight plan info has gone into effect yet:

DOT move would allow anyone to follow flight plans


Has this already happened or is it still pending?

I thought that got blocked by the "Rich Fuckers with G6s Club"?

Honestly, beside those and drug runners, who gives a poop?

Oops, wait, thought of one more . . . pilot killing his wife and setting her on fire.

Been in effect for a while. www.flightaware.com is one site at least. IFR filed plans only I think?



My understanding is that flightaware presently (or until very recently) allowed the suppression of IFR filed plans for "privacy" reasons. The change that either has been made or is being considered would change that to only allow suppression for "security" reasons--a narrower category probably.

Yes, believe you're right. I've plugged in a Lear the other day, and no info was given.
