Trying to edit it, I can only submit a time that's later than the time already filed. Is this a SD limitation or something else? Seems wasteful to have to cancel it and refile, even if it only takes a moment. Thanks!

Group: Forum Members Posts: 6, Visits: 6	hi On Saturday morning I filed a flightplan, intending it to be for 15.00hrs on Monday. At approx. 14.35 on Saturday I browsed the email confirmation and realised that the plan was for that day. when I went to the editing page on my Android phone it said that the tools to edit the plan were on that page. However the only option was to close the plan. I did that, which implied that the flight had actually taken place and then got a phonecall from Border Force! Can I edit a plan on an android phone and how please? Edited 6/7/2022 2:44:04 PM by hairgonejohn

If you've made a mistake when filing a flightplan you can simply cancel it and file another. I can't discuss a specific flightplan on here, if you've got a concern with it, but we can help you via customer support.

The only buttons available were to cancel or to close the flight plan. Is that because it was only 25 mins before departure? There was no delay button.

There should certainly have been a delay button available if you were really 25 minutes pre-departure, but possibly the flightplan was filed for the wrong time.
