What information should be entered for Item 15 on the flight plan form?

• A. Estimated time en route
• B. VFR cruising altitude
• C. Aircraft color
• D. Pilot's license number

Answer: (B)

Item 15 is where you state the altitude you intend to maintain. For VFR operations, that means entering the VFR cruising altitude—the height you plan to fly at along the route. ATC uses this information to manage traffic and keep separation, so the field communicates your intended cruising level clearly. The other options aren’t what this item is for: estimated time en route belongs in a different section, the aircraft’s color isn’t used for flight planning purposes, and the pilot’s license number isn’t part of the flight plan’s altitude information.
