Over+Out,
No, I know of no other airspace that has RT loading like some UK sectors.
Maastricht runs flow rate equivalent if not greater than the UK, but RT loading is not so high in my experience. If the French and many others ran with RT loading like yours, then you'd find them on strike by the end of the day rest assured!!
In my examples above I can assure you that both LACC and LTCC sectors WERE combined. I know the sectors well enough to know the traffic flows and SA's for each, and know straight away when combined operations are in progress.
Sometimes there is just no gap in ATCO transmissions for a pilot to 'get in' without fear of overstepping the controller - making congestion worse as he then has to repeat his stepped on Tx.
Surely this is not either good or right? It seems to me MOR filing is the only way of drawing attention to it.
