Flown around the area a few times recently. Occaisional closure of airspace between FL250 and 350 but was open last night. Bound sure to here the US drawl on the radio being cagey about what they are and where they are going but it doesn't take a brain surgeon to work it out. TCAS systems not modified for RVSM will have fun with the military using intermediate levels like FL340.

Interesting nav warning "deviations into afghanistan airspace should be avoided"! As if we want to go have a look. Other than that nothing unusual.
