When on IFR flights I frequently get asked two questions by controllers when en-route that seem a bit silly and I'm trying to understand what's going on:
1
ATC: Are you an IFR flight?
Me: Affirmarive
ATC: Roger, thanks
2
ATC: What route are you on?
Me: (read off the segment of my flight plan that I'm on... just puttzing along an airway on my clearance)
ATC: Great, thanks
Trying to understand what's going on where they're not sure if I'm IFR or what my route is (especially when im just flying the cleared route). Any insights behind the scenes as to what that's all about. Thanks.
