Flying In Class A Airspace

A friend and I were discussing whether flying in class A was allowed if you were IFR and non airways and/or not following a STAR/SID?

Is it?


I know Airways are class A and also London/Manchester TMA's and Jersey CTR are. I know VFR is not allowed, only IFR. However since class A is usually "associated" with Airways we were unsure if you could fly inside the TMA's and Jersey class A non airways??

For example could I fly IFR to Jersey non airways, what would happen at the CTR boundary would I have to follow STAR or can I just position for the IAP or get RVILS? How about outbound would I have to follow SID or can I just route as I require it?

cheers
