I can. Poles. And I haven't got a slightest problem with that. We all arrange our national airspace as we see fit.

As I now spend 50% of time in each country (UK and PL), and fly in both, every now and then I get a request from a FISO I talk to, to turn or change level for separation, in Class G airspace. Yes, someone could push back, saying "make me" , citing their rights and freedoms in uncontrolled airspace, but it's beneath me. All I do instead is have an occasional laugh - see my captions in http://youtu.be/wX_A5Wt1OiA when you get a chance. We're pilots, not barristers.

Airmanship - amazing how much change one word can make
