Some countries (and foreign controllers) allow jets to fly fast at lower altitudes. (Above 250 KTS below FL 100)
Some pilots claim that this have many disadvantages and risks. Can you share some thoughts of the risks for passenger jets? I am thinking of speeds above 250 kts below FL100 and stuff like bird strikes, CFIT, VFR traffic separation, GPWS/TCAS warnings, fuel consumption and so on…
(I was trying to find information or recommendation from Flight Safety Foundation about high speed at low altitudes but could not find anything.)
