Second Question:
If i got my squawk code and had my VFR flight following en route. My cruise altitude will be flying through Class C airspace and the altitude was approved by the approach. Am i clear to enter Class C airspace or do i have to contact the tower of the Class C before i could enter?

Third Question:
Overheard on a podcast that filing and NOT opening a VFR flight plan still gives them a place to start looking if you don’t show up? How?
Question 4:
What season and episode is the Island Life HGTV Episode with TavernAero In Florida Keys? I cannot locate it for the life of me. Haha love the podcast btw. I’m a student pilot but hope to solo any day. Winter here in NH so your podcast helps keep my head in the game.m when I can’t fly. Thanks! HA! Me neither! THANK YOU!
