Hi Mike,

Thank you for your extensive reaction! I am verry interested in what system
is in use by you overthere crossing the Pacific.

FYI: Routes from Europe to America and Canada are not 'flexible' as far as I
know; the so called "Oceanic clearence" will be given by Shanwick (UK). If
you are interested: messages (Up- and Downlinks) about this are to see in
the daily Almerelogs.

Best Regards, Hans Biere
