I've only filed a VFR flight plan once, as part of my training. Sad, I know. Need to work on that.
When flying into the DC SFRA, the instructions state file an IFR flight plan for the SFRA, and then activate it when contacting Potomac Approach. That last part I'm confused with. Because its an IFR flight plan we're filing for our VFR flight, it assigns us a transponder code, right? And Potomac App can just look that up with our tail #? "Potomac Approach, SpamCan 12345, VFR inbound to 2W5" is enough?
I'm going to retake the SFRA course again...
