Why does it happen here? Do you know why the E over D was reversed?
from what I have read is that ATC have been trying to lower E and change to E over D but airlines and GA have said no. I googled the changes proposed and they are rejected by GA
didn't the regulator change e over d to c over d in the early 2000s.?
it's all very confusing.
