FL80 over Amsterdam
I filed westbound over Amsterdam at FL80 on L980 (RKN FLEVO PAM GORLO) yesterday afternoon (unpressurised light twin). On all previous occasions, Langen handed me to Amsterdam, who subsequently asked me if I was able FL100 over the TMA (I usually was). Yesterday, Langen handed me to Dutch Mil, who sent me straight to Schiphol Approach. There was no request for a higher level, and I didn't volunteer one. And as far as it's possible to tell from RT, the sectors didn't seem very busy, but there were a couple of EHAM departures stepped at FL70 as they passed southbound beneath.
Has anything changed as far as handling overflying traffic goes? Is FL100 still easier than FL80/90?
