We not only have depress escape routes for much of our network (which includes Himalays, Rockies, Alps, Iran (We're not over Afganistan again yet Induces- so the MSAs are only 17000'!) but we also have SE Driftdown procedures as some route have MSAs higher than out SE ceiling above a threshold weight.
