How far from the boundary will overflight traffic usually auto hand off at?
4-5 minutes based on route of flight and airspeed.
Traffic will hand off as programmed to the next facility as indicated on the strip.
how does the VFR hand off patch work?
VFR aircraft not in the HOST system can be handed off to adjacent terminal facilities except N90 in our case. aircraft type and destination are not transmitted.
aircraft handed off to us will have VFR in the H side of the Data block.
