The increase in the separation after FL310 is to take account of possible altimeter inaccuracies at high flight levels.

No longer 2000 ft separation above 290. With the introduction of RVSM (Reduced vertical Separation Minima) separations are now only 1000 ft above 290.

If aircraft not RVSM compliant it is not allowed above 280.

Don't panic-it's been Photoshopped in. It's really a pigeon in Trafalgar Square. At least the moon's right this time.

Did I here that Rainboe was seen dashing out with all the Hardware he could muster to get a good view of the Moon eclipse tonight? ....

Have to say it looks mighty impressive from where I am ....

Mag 180 - 269 = even thousands of feet
Mag 270 - 359 = even thousands plus 500 feet"

Only outside Controlled Airspace - within controlled airspace, it's still the Semi Circular rule which applies.

Going back to HD's photos, the top a/c is a ThomsonFly B767 and the lower a/c an Easyjet A319.

No it's not.... if you look closely on the fuselage you can make out the reflection of the engine...with no water!
