Flight Following is an aircraft flying under VFR that is taking advantage of Air Traffic Control (ATC) services. If “flight following” is a new term, don’t worry, you’re not alone. Technically, it indicates the flight is radar identified by ATC and a number of advisories may be available from the controller.
