Thank you all. I'm a Simulator pilot at the academy and have been there for only 2 months. This part of a larger exercise seemed somewhat simplified and I was wondering what the IRL procedures should be.
BEagle - your points are noted. Not a TRA in use it seems, rather a block of flight levels, with the ATCO deciding where the RV should happen according to traffic. This raised some questions for me, hence my enquiry here.
ORAC - thank you. Plenty to get my teeth into there.
OAP - thank you. Cheers indeed.
