As the subject of agreed levels between sectors has been raised, I would be interested to know why these are not part of the published SID. Looking at various STARs there is a boxed paragraph with information as to expected descent clearance eg: ...FL150 by BNN 25d. It is emphasised that actual descent clearance will be as directed by ATC. Surely it would help if crews were informed what climb clearance was likely with the obvious warning to climb only when cleared. I have noted one exception to the rule, that of Compton SIDs from Luton which gives the expected requirement to cross CPT 11d at FL70 or above etc.
Any thoughts, Gentlemen ?
