And the problem is?

de facto forcing out of state airlines into a policy they might not like.

But that was happening prior to 9/11. A lot of US carriers didn't
like RVSM and the 8.33 radios for European airspace access, but each
nation has the right to control access to its airspace.



yeah, one can argue: if you want to come here you have to play by these
rules, you can stay outside if you don't like it. I wanna hear you when
such a thing is done to you (not to you personally), you are the first
complaining about it.

but it is all for 'security' ...
