that's nice. so because i am curious on a flight deviation of 277 kms, directly over a war zone, where they have been shooting down planes.. i am suddenly 'the enemy'?

or is it because i posted an article, stating these pilots requested 35, and were denied?

For your info controllers can assign a flight track/route but pilots may or not agree with it so Malaysian pilots could have refused flying that track.
the article that was posted, the reason you're now calling me a communist pig, states, quite clearly, that the altitude is decided by the air traffic controllers.
