I believe that is the case. The point in the RCF procedures is being predictable.
And that's why I do not understand the option "or if in VMC proceed to land at suitable". How is that supposed to work, in class C airspace? Or any.
Also, oggers seems to be singing the same tune. The difference beteween Operator Flight Plan (OFP / PLOG) and ATC Filed Flight Plan (FPL) was a little lost at the beginning of the thread but no longer so. To my understanding there is no TOD in FPL ever, only a change of cruising level for the latter stages is the airspace structure and RADs (Route Availibility Document - Eurocontrol's airspace use guidlines) require so.
