It appears that most,(but not all),seem to agree that compliance with the original FL restriction is a very sensible idea.However until it is a legal requirement,any ATCer who relies upon it for separation would be the one to get it in the neck if it all goes horribly wrong,not the pilot.
As i've said before, I will continue to fly the original profile to comply with the first cleared level(it seems the only foolproof safe method)but others cannot be blamed if they are within their rights to do differently.
How do we get the rules changed?does anybody else think we should lobby for change?if not why not?
