Neville, quite right! However if you look at the traffic in that airspace off the east coast during a TIBA doggo shift 1230-1830 last week on FR24 Replay there were a hell of a lot of jets going straight through the airspace and not going around like QFA095…. 1730 - 1830 very interesting….raises a whole lot of questions that will be asked on the TIBA thread
