Hand Flying

You're not allowed to do that in RVSM.
What are the odds of requesting a block altitude and getting it like we used to do in the military? Wouldn't need to do it very long. Even 10 minutes worth would be significant.

Perhaps with a little planning, you can get your hand flying time in that way.
