Flight Plan Forms are used for submitting information to air traffic control and other relevant authorities in order to request permission for a flight and to provide necessary details about the flight. They are filed by pilots or flight planners and contain information such as the flight's departure and destination airports, planned route, estimated times, aircraft details, and any special requests or considerations. The purpose of these forms is to ensure the safety and efficiency of air traffic by providing pertinent information to the authorities responsible for managing and monitoring air traffic. With this information, air traffic controllers can anticipate and manage traffic flow, coordinate with other aircraft, and respond to any emergencies or contingencies that may arise during the flight.
