offsets

410 and others
I got the geometry wrong and I did read the other discussions. My question is it seems this could be done by the airlines with no official ICAO action required by adding the offset to their SOP's. Not knocking ICAO but it will take years. So back to the question, is there a reason the airlines cannot do this on their own?
With the growth in air travel all over the world and the increased Nav precision this sort of event will happen again. Interesting that this event and the one off Africa took place in the 'empty quarters" of aviation.
