this RFL adherance day is a show of how Eurocontrol is looking at the burocratic problem created by burocratic way of thinking. Instead of creating a system, where sector overload would be solved by means of NOT imposing too much of a hassle for aircrews and enabling them to fly as freely as possible, it adds just another barrier.
we are in 21st century for god's sake!
for me, ATCO, this kind of thinking (you get only what you fill in) is total rubbish and stands against why we are there in the first place.
