OB048: Thanksgiving Blues and Night Vision Clues

AG and RH respond to a listener question about VFR flight plans.  Sierra Lima sent in some audio feedback used on the show.  Thank you, SL!

What happens when you file a VFR flight plan?  Who sees it?  How do you activate it?  Why is it so important?

Mike Delta sent in audio about his recent flight in the cold tundra up North.  What does "Radar Contact Lost" mean?  How do we separate aircraft not under radar coverage?

AG tells a story of audio issues in the helicopter while using his night vision goggles.
