That may have been true in the not so distant past, but now, at least at ZKC, if you drop off our radar, and you are no longer talking to us on the radio, you are MISSING, and we will go looking for you....local FBO, local law enforcement, etc. So please, if you are getting flight following, please say goodbye before just departing the frequency, Thanks.
