@Tim is this something you’d consider?

We did make a change to the NOTAM briefing, earlier this year I think, to explicitly state at the top whether VFR or IFR NOTAMs are included, and also the period.

that's great.

it would be nice to allow to set it to Mixed Mode be default though....i'm having to remember to do this on 9/10 flights i do. (yes i know SD is an VFR tool Smile )

also - small bug/annoying feature noticed:
If you switch to IFR it uses the airways chart
If you switch back to Mixed, it stays on airways. I think it would make more sense to go to VFR charts ?

I fly IFR OCAS quite regularly so want the VFR chart displayed by default, and I find it irritating that I have to remember to change flight mode from ‘ VFR’ two ‘Mixed’ each time I create a new route. Forgetting to do so means I may miss some relevant NOTAM. 

Any chance that a preferred mode could be created in Setup > Planning options?
