Unless under the control of ATC, HM Ships or ASACS!!!!! Say, if they were in the block surface to 45 000'? That's the problem!

Chilli. Good points. Some down to civ/mil differences and of course I am viewing QFE/QNH from a purely mil point of view. I can certainly see the benefits from a human factors point of view, but still like the idea of seeing 0 when I'm on the runway. Maybe I'm just old and resistant to change?? Unlike my NATS brethren who have their destinations and who are all far from being resistant to change (sorry going off thread now!).
