And another one...........
Inbound MAN, Shannon says - descend now, be level FL270, 10 miles before LIFFY.
Has the already low block standing agreement changed again ?
We will be level at LIFFY, we do not wish to squander another 200kgs of fuel being level 10 miles before LIFFY thankyou
and the Shannon controller sees that you are unable to comply with the clearance by reaching the level 10 miles late so the next day they tell you to be level 20 miles before liffy.
How much fuel does that cost?
Can't believe that someone would not comply with a clearance without telling ATC first.
