Dont Overfill,

No need to apologise.

I am not against the reclassification of some of the Class E - wouldn't dream of flying above 3,000ft in there without speaking to Glasgow.

But at 2,000-2,500ft I often can't speak to Glasgow!

The main concern, I believe, is that the neat solution - just change the letter on the chart - was not the best solution.

After some chat, we did reach some compromises - especially the area over Whitelees, where millions have been spent so ATC can't see anything in that airspace below a certain height (to remove the windfarm clutter).

But there were other sticking points.
