Hey all :o)


With regard to lifting the 250kt speed restriction, should it be included in co-ordination if it is something that is non standard and then being transferred to another sector / unit? There will be a discussion to obtain a level for the inbound how long does it take to say and he will be deristricted - at least it will give the next atco a heads up.

However, in the case of an aircraft changing from Class A, to class E airspace at FL45, are pilots going to be going as hard as >250kts?? theyve gotta slow down for the approach at some time!! If seperation is relying on the speed of the aircraft then I would emphasis the restriction - as mentioned earlier in the thread - its better to cover ure backside ;oP
