N864 lower limits

Several times when transiting N864 NE of D203 in daytime hours
(ie between 0700 and 2000) I have been questioned by London
Information as to my intentions.

On the last occasion I asked them to confirm the base of N864
and was told the base was FL65. This was at c1130Z. According
to my 0.5 mil map the base of this section between these hours
is FL105. However I meekly descended below FL65.

Can someone please confirm for me what the base is?

BCN to TALGA - FL55, FL65 then FL85

TALGA to RADNO - FL105

RADNO to 10 S MONTY - FL125

10 S MONTY - 5 S MONTY - FL105

5 S MONTY - MONTY - FL85

Hope this helps. You could look up the route info at www.ais.org.uk

You should be aware that the base level of N864 does lower according to the time of day. I can't remember what the exact details are now that LATCC(Mil) West have moved to Swannick but it was always a gotcha on an afternoon shift.
