Thanks a lot, btw what is meant by MSA?

Hi,MSA is Minimum Safe Altitude, i.e. 1,000 ft terrain clearance everywhere on the airway between two waypoints.Cheers,http://home.planet.nl/~duijn181/cu2/koen.jpg

I've asked some QF crew before about L888 and they said they have only used it on SIN route, not the HKG route.Also, do anyone have the flightplan of HKG-LHR(BA) and HKG-FRA(LH)via this route please? Thanks a lot!
