ezyezy 17 Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 Hello. Ive planned a flight today and will be operating the below route. (FPL-ACA868-IN -B763/H-SDE1FGHIJ1RWXYZ/LB1 -CYYZ1255 -N0477F330 VERDO3 EPSAT Q921 AGLUK DCT BAREE/N0473F350 DCT TUDEP DCT 52N050W/M080F350 53N040W 54N030W/M080F370 54N020W DCT DOGAL/N0466F370 DCT BEXET DCT BAKUR UN546 STU UP2 BEDEK -EGLL0611 EGCC -PBN/A1B1C1D1L1O1S1 NAV/RNVD1E2A1 DOF/140715 REG/CFCAF EET/CZUL0023 CZQX0144 CZQX0213 EGGX0348 EISN0453 EGTT0536 SEL/HJAL RVR/200 PER/D RALT/CYQX BIKF EINN RMK/TCAS -E/0804) Can someone advise me how I can force the system to make system stop climb at point TUDEP at either 370 (or 350) and not do the climb from 350 to 370 at 30 west. I need to have a constant altitude for the crossing, either at 350 or 370. Many thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raycopper 2 Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 Altitude/FL Capping set to FL350? Ray Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ezyezy 17 Posted July 16, 2014 Author Share Posted July 16, 2014 Sorry, this bit confused me Ray When crossing the Atlantic you have to keep a constant height and mach number when in the MNPS airspace and obviously not deviate off the tracks unless for weather.. I believe you can change altitude at 30 west but its not best practice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
srcooke 422 Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 Not in the route editor ezyezy ?? its from when you start planning, same tab as for ETOPS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
srcooke 422 Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 ezyezy for your info from the NAT Doc 007: Provision of Step-Climbs 8.2.14 Tactical ATS Surveillance control and tactical procedural control are exercised in some areas of the NAT MNPS Airspace. However, oceanic clearances for most NAT flights are of a strategic nature, whereby flights are allocated a conflict-free route and profile from coast-out to landfall. Although such strategic clearances normally specify a single flight level for the entire crossing, there is often scope for en route step-climb re-clearances as fuel burn-off makes higher levels more optimal. Controllers will accommodate requests for step-climbs whenever possible. When so re-cleared, pilots should initiate the climb without delay (unless their discretion was invited or unless a conditional clearance was issued) and always report to ATC immediately upon leaving the old and on reaching the new cruising levels.
