My VFR traffic is IFR?

I have several flight plans for aircraft into KHRT with all of them VFR touch and go traffic. All of them start and taxi correctly but then take off IFR and do missed approaches. They do this if there is only one aircraft in the pattern or three. Here is a copy of one of my flight plans:
AC#61,5785,10%,4hr,VFR,17:00:00,TNG17:15:00,700,F,41,KHRT,17:20:00,TNG18:45:00,700,F,41,KHRT
Please help! I just want them to do touch and goes at the airfield!

Say what type is #61? If the crates are too large they go IFR. Check John's site:

p.s. there is a space between TNG18 and :45:00 in your f/p

Well, 61 is a C-130, but I also tried it with a Mooney and it did the same thing. I will remove that space and see if that makes a difference.

when it comes to flight plans the spacing and punuaction is very important. If it is not correct it can be missunderstood or it might even cause fs 9 to crash because of a invalid flight.

I found the problem. I checked the flight plan and for some reason, there were no spaces in it. However, the I changed the 700 to 7 and it works great. I guess the altitude was just to much!

for my TnG flights I usually just put 90.
