VFR flight planning using AFPEx

Flight Plan Addressing: The FPL should be addressed to:
a) the destination aerodrome;
b) all interested ATSUs en-route;
c) entering or leaving the London FIR - EGZYVFRT;
d) the Scottish/Oceanic FIRs - EGZYVFRP (when necessary); and
e) all foreign FIRs that the aircraft will fly through or land/depart from.
When adding a French aerodrome, AFPEx will automatically include the collective address EGZYVFLF which will send the flight plan to all French BRIA and FIR addresses. This means that only the SIV address and any special addresses detailed in the French AIP ENR 1.11 need to be added. The SIV address should be added in the SIV ICAO <ZTZX> form.
The French AIP ENR 1.11 specifies that the Airfield Tower should be included for inbound flights <ICAO> ZTZX and the airfield ATS  office for outbound flights ICAO <ZPZX>  
For example, for Le Touquet inbound flights, the address LFQQZTZX (the SIV) should be added in addition to LFATZTZX and EGGYVFLF which AFPEx will  automatically include. For outbound flights, the address LFATZPZX should also be added.
For the following common French airfields, the following addresses should be added 
in addition to those automatically included:
Le Touquet, Calais, Abbeville LFQQZTZX
Deauville                              LFRGZTZX
Caen, Cherbourg                  LFRGZTZX LFRGZPZX
Dinard                                 LFRNZTZX
A complete list of address for a flight from White Waltham to Le Touquet is shown below:
EGLMZXFE (ORIGINATOR)
LFATZTZX   (DESTINATION)
EGZYVFLF (VFR IN FRANCE)
LFACZTZX   (ALTERNATE 01)
EGMDZTZX (ALTERNATE 02)
EGZYVFRT  (LONDON FIR)
LFQQZTZX   (SIV)
LFATZPZX   (ATS OFFICE - DESTINATION)
LFACZPZX   (ATS OFFICE - ALTERNATE)
Item 15: Route - For flights OFF designated routes, list points normally not more than 30 minutes’ flying time apart and enter DCT (DIRECT) at the start and end and between successive points. Points may be navigation aids, or bearing/distances from these (10 miles on the 050 radial from DVR would be written as ‘DVR05010’), or latitude and longitude co-ordinates, as for example ‘5114N00122W’. Do not use aerodrome designators. For flights to and from France, include the point at which you will cross the FIR boundary.
Additionally, for flights to/from France, the French Authorities require the frontier crossing point (the UK/France FIR boundary position) to be included in Item 15 (Route) of the FPL. To assist pilots, the UK now includes the ATS route reporting points on the Southern England and Wales 1:500 000 chart. These can be used as a frontier crossing point. A position may also be shown as LAT/LONG, or as a bearing and distance from a route reporting point or navigation aid.
Example:
Cap Gris Nez - RINTI
Cap Gris Nez - 51N00130E
Cap Gris Nez - RINTI23005
Cap Gris Nez - DVR16010
 
DCT CHT DCT LAM DCT DET DCT DVR DCT DVR15610 DCT RINTI
The EET for this position should be shown in Item 18 of the FPL (Other information) in the format EET/LFFF(elapsed time) or EET/EGTT (elapsed time), depending on flight direction.
Example: EET/LFFF0145 (UK/France) or EET/EGTT0020 (France/UK).
Item 18: EET/ – Significant points or FIR boundary designators and accumulated Estimated Elapsed Times to such points or FIR boundaries, when required by regional air navigation agreements or ATS authority (e.g. EET/DVR160100030 or  EET/LFFF0210).
Return FPLs: Pilots may elect to file their return FPLs at the same time as they file their outbound FPL. The normal requirement is to address the FPL solely to the aerodrome of departure. However, if the pilot also adds the addressee of the destination aerodrome, then this will ensure that the return destination in the UK is aware of the intended return flight, just in case the return FPL is not transmitted from the non-UK
country. If the return flight occurs on a different day, pilots must ensure that the date of flight (DOF) is shown in Item 18 of the FPL.
Example:
DOF/060922 (DOF/year/month/day = Date of flight 22 September 2006)
