I don't think that you will find that the UK is that flat actually, try teling to that to the pair of F15's who crashed into terra firma whilst confused about their
altitude operating QNH/RPS under a RIS. Bottom line is safety altitide is the law when IMC. The only time you get terrain clearance from ATC is when under Radar control. (which they weren't)
I refer you to my original comment, if you don't have the mental flexibility to operate under QFE/QNH and then read out the elevation of the airfield then you don't have the right to be classed as a "professional pilot", considering most of you barely get above 120 kts where things happen painfully slowly..........get a grip.
All of your arguments for abolishing QFE are brittle at best. You all have the audacity to have a go at the RAF for using QFE, yet expect the impeccable service you should/will get in a MATZ, again, if you don't like it go elsewhere and do us all a favour.
