The Filing tab allows the retrieval and edition of Flight Plans as they are knows to IFPS - the other tabs reflecting the situation based on ETFMS/TACT data.
It therefore allows the access to Flight Plans up to five days before departure time, and not only from the usual 20 hours timespan as provided by the other Flights tabs. It also is the sole NOP tool allowing you to visualise, edit and potentially cancel Flight Plans not yet transferred to TACT.
