Right-click on the destination to open the flight plan. | |||
'''Check the Direction of Flight:''' | |||
'''Westbound''': Must fly at an even level (e.g., FL320, FL340, FL360). | |||
'''Eastbound''': Must fly at an odd level (e.g., FL310, FL330, FL350, FL370). | |||
=== Example: === | |||
If traffic is flying LTFM-EDDF and has filed FL350, note that Frankfurt is west of Istanbul, so the traffic must fly at an even level. You can correct this using the following phraseology: | |||
"THY5EV, Istanbul Ground, hello. Flying westbound, '''I can offer you FL340 or FL360'''." | |||
(Since '''FL350 is requested, it makes sense to suggest one level lower and one higher as the correct FL'''.) | |||
The traffic will either confirm or request a different level. Once you have a level, say: | |||
"THY5EV, roger, '''final level updated to FL340'''." | |||
